AbAb
Hey
      C7C7
How's your life?
       F minorFm
Yeah, mine's alright
       Bb7Bb7
Oh, I'm doing fine (It's just life, honey)
   AbAb
Well, hey
         C7C7
I'm having a bad day
        F minorFm
So tell me it's okay
             Bb7Bb7
Sometimes it's just that way

🎸 Pre-Chorus:
         AbAb
My mama said "The grass is always greener where you water it
         C7C7
Go and fill your diet up with greens, and reds, and oranges
      F minorFm
Coffee goes cold, so you better drink all of it
         Bb7Bb7
Go and live your life, 'cause you know you were born for it"

🎸 Chorus:
        AbAb
You are not an image or a product or commodity
         C7C7
You aren't worth more because you like to eat broccoli
            F minorFm
You're made up of your thoughts, habits, hopes, fears
                   Bb7Bb7
And honestly, you're floating through space on a rock

Ain't that crazy?

Post-🎸 Chorus:
  DbDb
So, go and live your life

What could go wrong?

AbAb
Hey
                C7C7
So I fell on my face when I was walking through town earlier today
      F minorFm
But then I stayed down, laying on the ground
   Bb7Bb7
Cause everyone looks so happy when they're upside-down
   AbAb
And, it got me wondering, what is this all about
      C7C7
We're just kids in the playground when the sun goes out, but
F minorFm
A minorAm I instructions, what am I here to do
    Bb7Bb7
An existential crisis at twenty-two

🎸 Pre-Chorus:
         AbAb
My mama said "The grass is always greener where you wanna be
          C7C7
You got to learn to love the ground you're standing on already
        F minorFm
And coffee goes cold, but be grateful that there's any
         Bb7Bb7
Go and live your life, 'cause you've always been ready"

🎸 Chorus:
        AbAb
You are not an image or a product or commodity
         C7C7
You aren't worth more because you like to eat broccoli
            F minorFm
You're made up of your thoughts, habits, hopes, fears
                   Bb7Bb7
And honestly, you're floating through space on a rock

Ain't that crazy?
