Verse
D7 B7 Em7 A7
Maybe I'm just a mess and you made me this way
D7 B7 Em7 A7
I could try to impress you but my brain and words will never obey
D7 B7
Just scramble my words leave them sunny side up
Em7 A7
The smile on your face means my tongue's tying up
D7 B7
And maybe I'll eventually give it up
Em7 A7
But given my luck I'm not giving too much
F#m7 B7
And maybe I don't deserve you but
Em7 A7 F#m7
Lately Hiding from virtue won't make me
B7
Run away from you
Em7 A7
Oh I just don't understand
[Chorus]
D7 B7 Em7 A7
Because they say the grass is greener on the other side
D7 B7
But I don't believe a word that they say
Em7 A7
I won't pay them any mind
D7 B7
Oh I just want you to know
Em7 A7
That if I don't really show
F#m7 B7
How I feel
Em7 A7
Just know that it's real
Yeah
[Verse 2]
D7 B7 Em7
Maybe I just don't get the message
A7 D7
Maybe I'm just a lonely mess and
B7 Em7
How the breeze fumbles with your dress is
A7 F#m7
Another reason I'm hypnotized
B7 Em7
See the amazon in your eyes
A7 F#m7
Dream of ways I can stand beside
B7 Em7
Be your sun when the rain subsides
Gm A7
I just want you to know
[Chorus]
D7 B7 Em7 A7
Because they say the grass is greener on the other side
D7 B7
But I don't believe a word that they say
Em7 A7
I won't pay them any mind
D7 B7
Oh I just want you to know
Em7 A7
That if I don't really show
F#m7 B7
How I feel
Em7 A7
Just know that it's real
[Bridge]
D7 B7
Ain't a soul brighter than yours high beams down the highway
Em7 A7
Looking for a better thing wouldn't happen even if I tried it
D7 B7
All of my words tripping over obstacles and hurdles
Em7 A7
Tryna find a way to speak to you is eternal
D7 B7
I pull up in the driveway too nervous to respond
Em7
To your message I'm sorry
G7 F#m7
I know that I don't dese rve you
B7 Em7 D7
But Lord knows I love you
[Chorus]
D7 B7 Em7 A7
Because they say the grass is greener on the other side
D7 B7
But I don't believe a word that they say
Em7 A7
I won't pay them any mind
D7 B7
Oh I just want you to know
Em7 A7
That if I don't really show
F#m7 B7
How I feel
Em7 A7
Just know that it's real
