It's not easy bein' green

Having to spend each day
    Fm/Ab                Gsus4
The color of the leaves
        G                Cm7
When I think it could be nicer
                   F7
Bein' red or yellow or gold
                               Bb          F7
Or something much more colorful like that

         Bb                Aaug
It's not easy being green

It seems you blend in
        Fm/Ab                      Gsus4
with so many other ordinary things
     G                      Cm7
And people tend to pass you over
                               F7
'Cause you're not standing out

Like flashy sparkles in the water
Bb
Or stars in the sky

     [ch]Cm7/Ab[/ch] (Ab7M9)                  Dbmaj6
But green's the color of the spring
                  Bb                    Bbmaj
And green can be cool and friendly-like
                 Gm7              C7
And green can be big like a ocean

Or important like a mountain
    F9
Or tall like a tree

              Bb                 Aaug
When green is all there is to be
                  Fm/Ab
It could make you wonder why
               Gsus4      G
But why wonder why wonder
                  Cm7
I am green, and it'll do fine
     F7                                         Bb 
It's beautiful, and I think it's what I want to be
