Chords with lyrics
Difficulty: Novice
Bb majorBb AaugAaug
It's not easy bein' green
Having to spend each day
Fm/Ab Gsus4Gsus4
The color of the leaves
G+G Cm7Cm7
When I think it could be nicer
F7F7
Bein' red or yellow or gold
Bb majorBb F7F7
Or something much more colorful like that
Bb majorBb AaugAaug
It's not easy being green
It seems you blend in
Fm/Ab Gsus4Gsus4
with so many other ordinary things
G+G Cm7Cm7
And people tend to pass you over
F7F7
'Cause you're not standing out
Like flashy sparkles in the water
Bb majorBb
Or stars in the sky
Cm7/Ab (Ab7M9) Dbmaj6
But green's the color of the spring
Bb majorBb Bbmaj
And green can be cool and friendly-like
Gm7Gm7 C7C7
And green can be big like a ocean
Or important like a mountain
F9F9
Or tall like a tree
Bb majorBb AaugAaug
When green is all there is to be
Fm/Ab
It could make you wonder why
Gsus4Gsus4 G+G
But why wonder why wonder
Cm7Cm7
I am green, and it'll do fine
F7F7 Bb majorBb
