The Grass Is Blue

C
I've had to think up a way to survive
      F
Since you said it's over
             C
Told me goodbye
C
I just can't make it one day without you
F                         G          C
Unless I pretend that the opposite's true


Am          G
Rivers flow backwards
F           C
Valleys are high
F
Mountains are level
           C
Truth is a lie
Am            G
I'm perfectly fine
    F            C
And I don't miss you
    F
The sky is green
        G        C
And the grass is blue

Am  Em  F  C  Am  G  F  G

    C
How much can a heart and a troubled mind take
F                                     C
Where is that fine line before it all breaks
                              C
Can one end their sorrow just cross over it
    F                  G          C
And into that realm of insanity's bliss


       Am           G
There's snow in the tropics
        F          C
There's ice on the sun
     F
It's hot in the Arctic
              C
And crying is fun
    Am        G
And I'm happy now
F                   C
And I'm glad we're through
        F
And the sky is green
        G        C
And the grass is blue


        Am          G
And the rivers flow backwards
    F            C
And my tears are dry
F
Swans hate the water
                 C
And eagles can't fly
Am              G
But I'm alright now
         F        C
Now that I'm over you
        F
And the sky is green
        G        Am
And the grass is blue
    F
And I don't love you
        G        Am
And the grass is blue
