Capo 4th fret
 
 
 
[Verse 1]
Bm                                   G
Staring out the window of your city apartment
D                         A
Wishing I was anywhere else
      Bm                                G
Right then and there I made myself a promise
     D                          A
That one day I’d escape your hell
    G                                  Bm
You reached over and pulled the blinds
A
Said the sun would burn my eyes
     G
Told me I had the perfect life
Bm7          A
But it turns out (it turns out)
 
 
[Chorus]
                            G
The grass is greener on the other side
                    Bm7                A
Yeah, it looks even better than what I had in mind
                      Bm7             G
Yeah, I could build a house and maybe paint it white
              Bm7            A
Now I see for miles and it’s all mine
A
Yeah it’s all mine
Bm7    G
Always said that I wouldn’t amount to anything
Bm7     A
Oh, and lately I’ve been sensing some jealousy
Bm7    G
By the way tonight he’s sleeping right next to me
        Bm7     A
Oh it’s so much sweeter
                                Bm
God it’s so much greener on the other side
 
 
[Verse 2]
        Bm7                        G
Staring at the dark skyline from a distance
      D                        A
Feels like another planet now (like another planet)
          Bm                         G
And you’d never admit that this one existed
D                         A
Runnin’ felt so out of bounds
  G
I guess I proved the theory wrong
Bm        A
I stepped over where that line was drawn
        G
To this viridescent bridge I’m on
    Bm7         A
And I’m lookin’ out, I’m lookin’ out
 
 
[Chorus]
                            G
The grass is greener on the other side
                    Bm7                A
Yeah, it looks even better than what I had in mind
                      Bm7             G
Yeah, I could build a house and maybe paint it white
              Bm7            A
Now I see for miles and it’s all mine
A
Yeah it’s all mine
Bm7    G
Always said that I wouldn’t amount to anything
Bm7     A
Oh, and lately I’ve been sensing some jealousy
Bm7    G
By the way tonight he’s sleeping right next to me
        Bm7     A
Oh it’s so much sweeter
                                 Bm
God it’s so much greener (on the other side)
 
 
[Bridge]
G        Bm    A
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
             Bm       G
The grass is greener, yeah
         Bm    A
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
 
 
[Outro]
             Bm             G
The grass is greener on the other side
                    Bm                 A
Yeah, it looks even better than what I had in mind
                                G
I could build a house and maybe paint it white
              Bm             A
Now I see for miles and it’s all mine
         N.C.
It’s all mine
