correct but they're the right chords.

Intro: G  G/f#  Em  Cadd9 (x2)

G            G/f#
You left it, I sent it
Em  Cadd9
I want it back 
G            G/f#
You left it, I sent it
Em  Cadd9
I want it back

C                D                 
If I had you here, I'd clip your wings 
C                         D                 
Snap you up and leave you sprawling on my pin 
C                    D                 
This plan of mine is oh so very lame 
C                         D                 
Can't you see the grass is greener where it rains 

G            G/f#                  Em
You left, I died, I went and you cried 
               Cadd9                      G
You came, I think, But I never really know 
               G/f#                    Em   
I've served my time, I've watched you climb 
               Cadd9                      G
The wrong incline, But what do I know 

G        G/f#
Accept it, Don't let it 
Em       Cadd9
Turn the screw 
G        G/f#
Accept it, And let it 
Em       Cadd9
Scream back at you 

C                D
Now this applies both equally to you and I 
C                D
The only thing we share is the same sky 
C                D                 
These empty metaphors, they're all in vain 
C                D                 
Like can't you see the grass is greener where it rains 

G            G/f#                  Em
You left, I died, I went and you cried 
               Cadd9                      G
You came, I think, But I never really know 
               G/f#                    Em   
I've served my time, I've watched you climb 
               Cadd9                      G
The wrong incline, But what do I know
G       G/f#        Em      Cadd9
                            Yeah what do I know
G       G/f#        Em      Cadd9
                            Yeah what do I know


G             G/f#
In the garden Snake was a charmin' 
    Em             Cadd9
And Eve said let's give it a try 
G                G/f# 
Now lead us not into temptation 
Em                 Cadd9      
But no matter how hard I try 

G                      G/f#
When in the garden and Snake is a charmin' 
   Em                        Cadd9
And Eve says let's give it a try 
G                G/f#   Em               Cadd9
                        Eve is the apple of my eye 
G                G/f#   Em               Cadd9
                        Eve is the apple of my eye
G                G/f#   Em               Cadd9
                        Eve is the apple of my eye

G
And I lie behind you 
     G/f#             Em         Cadd9
And cradle you in the palm of me 
                   G    
And I pat your hair down 
    G/f#                Em   
I think will we sink or swim? 
                  C
will we sink or swim? 
C
will we sink or swim? 
C
will we sink or swim? 
                                G
'Cause we could do either on a whim
