The Grass Is Blue

• C

(note: so I wanted to play this one the other day and I noticed there are only cover versions. 
So here it is the original version by Dolly)


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
