INTRO: Ab C# Db Eb

#1.
  Ab            Db
I had the world when you were mine..
      Eb        Ab  F# F
but I threw it away.
  Bbm                   F#      Db
I thought the grass was greener there..
Bb                   Eb                 
where I wandered one day.

#2.
  Ab                 Db    
I left your arms for someone else..
    Eb           Ab   F# F
but he was never true.
  Bbm                   F#      Db
I thought the grass was greener there..
Ab  Eb      Ebm  Ab
now here am I so blue.

BRIDGE:
Ab    Bbm          Eb    Cm  
Now another, now another holds your hand.
Am          Bbm              Eb
And there's nothing, there's nothing left 
    Ab
for me.
       G                Cm             Fm
And it hurts so much to see her stand, where 
Bb             Eb  Bbm Eb
I once used to be.

#3.
   Ab     C  Ab    Db                   Eb
It breaks my heart when you walk by..so near, 
           Ab  F# F
and yet so far.
        Bbm      Db     Ab   Eb Ab         Eb
And the grass is really greener there..for that's 
               Ab  C Db F# F
just where you are.

OUTRO:
           Bbm   Ab Db                 Ab
I know the grass is greener there..for that's 
Eb   Cm    Eb  Ab  Eb B Ab
just where you are.
