Chords with lyrics
C majorC
It's not that easy being green
C/BC/B A minorAm
Having to spend each day the color of the leaves
Em/GEm/G Dm/F
When I think it could be nicer
G+G
being red, or yellow, or gold
C majorC G+G
Or something much more colorful like that
C majorC
It's not easy being green
C/BC/B A minorAm
It seems you blend in with so many other ordinary things
Em/GEm/G Dm/F
And people tend to pass you over
G+G
'Cause you're not standing out like flashy sparkles in the water
C majorC C7C7
Or stars in the sky
FF
But green's the color of spring
G+G C majorC A minorAm
And green can be cool and friendly-like
DmDm
And green can be big like a mountain
FF
Or important like a river
G+G Gsus7 G7G7
Or tall like a tree
C majorC
When green is all there is to be
C/BC/B A minorAm
It could make you wonder why
Am7Am7 Em/GEm/G
But why wonder why wonder
Dm/F
I am green, and it'll do fine
G+G Gsus7 C majorC
It's beautiful, and I think it's what I want to be
