Tom : C
C
I've had to think up a way to survive
F C
Since you said it's over told me goodbye
I just can't make it one day without you
F G7 C
Unless I pretend that the opposite's true
Am G7 F C
Rivers flow backwards valleys are high
F C
Mountains are level truth is a lie
Am G7 F C
I'm perfectly fine and I don't miss you
F G7 C
The sky is green and the grass is blue
How much can a heart and a troubled mind take
F C
Where is that fine line before it all breaks
Can one end their sorrow just cross over it
F G7 C
And into that realm of insanity bliss
Am G7 F C
There's snow in the tropics there's ice on the sun
F C
It's hot in the Arctic and crying is fun
Am G7 F C
And I'm happy now and I'm glad we're through
F G7 C
And the sky is green and the grass is blue
Am G7 F C
And the rivers flow backwards and my tears are dry
F C
Swans hate the water and eagles can't fly
Am G7 F C
But I'm alright now now that I'm over you
F G7 Am
And the sky is green and the grass is blue
F G7 Am
And I don't love you and the grass is blue
