Greener

• E

Here is how to play the chords for the song, as well as a couple alternate versions of the E and E/Eb

   
   E    E/Eb    C      C#m    A    Am   B     Ab
e--7-----7------0-------4-----0----0----2-----4--------|
B--9-----9------1-------5-----2----1----4-----4--------|
G--9-----9------0-------6-----2----2----4-----5--------|
D--9-----9------2-------6-----2----2----4-----6--------|
A—-7-----6------3-------4-----0----0----2-----6--------|
E--x-----x------x-------x-----x----x----x-----4--------|

It’s a little easier to play the E and E/Eb like this: (yet it doesn’t sound as accurate)
   
   E   E/Eb
e--0----0----|
B--0----0----|
G--1----1----|
D--2----1----|
A—-2----2----|
E--0----0----|





Verse 1:

E            E/Eb             C#m                   C                      
 Here’s that part again where eveything’s more than IT should be 
      A                Am                    E 
and greener seems to      fall beneath your feet. 
E         E/Eb                    C#m             C                      
 Seconds  tick  like boulders whenever you don't call 
         A                    B           C#m         E/Eb 
Does it seem like that where you are?, wherever it is you   are, 
         C#m                  E/Eb        A                     E
does it seem like that, where you   AAAaaaarrre?    yeEeEeEeeah 


Verse 2:

E         E/Eb                C#m             C                      
 Time for time together and depending on the weather 
             A                C                      E--G--A
We’ll either argue in your       house or outside 
E          E/Eb      C#m                   C                     A
 different I've felt    before-I-got this notch on my belt cause in my 
       B              C#m 
plans you were all for me 
E/Eb(2x)          C#m               E/Eb               A
         yeah But now it seems that you'd just rather leave


Chorus:

                 B
Wherever you go.....
                 E          B        C#m     A               C#m 
Is breaking me slowly Dont leave it alone,    dont leave it alone 
     A             B              E            B    C     C#m       A
you sound so much further on the phone   you  fit--just--right, right next 
      Ab                      A             Am             E   Am
to me    but theres always a reason why you    can’t be 


Verse 3:

E     E/Eb                C#m              C         A                    
 Telephones make you seem miles away from home all alone I get 
   C              E--G--A
a little meaner 
E        E/Eb            C#m              C                 A 
 leave a message at your tone and miles away from home you get 
           B          C#m
a little cleaner of me 
E/Eb              C#m           E/Eb        A                      
 and    I find a little greener shade of envy     


Chorus:

                 B
Wherever you go.....
                 E          B        C#m     A               C#m 
Is breaking me slowly Dont leave it alone,    dont leave it alone 
     A             B              E            B    C     C#m       A
you sound so much further on the phone   you  fit--just--right, right next 
      Ab                      A             Am             E   Am
to me    but theres always a reason why you    can’t be 


*Bridge: 
 
E         D          A              C
 Tissues  get used, getting rid of you
           E            D    A        C              E
Don't you see what you do to me? And you just let it be
               D                 A                C
  I wish you'd   get used, and then come running back
         E             D           A         C
To the shoulder that's   become me, To the shoulder that's me

Outro:

A             B                  C#m 
Wherever you are, is breaking my heart 
                B                    E
Dont leave it alone, dont leave it alone 
     B       C#m          A          Ab    A-Am  
You fit just right right next to me
