Fm
Life is never what it seems, we're always searching 
                                  C             Fm
in our dreams to find that little castle in the air.
Fm
When worry starts to cloud the mind, it's hard to 
                                         C
leave it all behind and just pretend you haven't got 
  Fm
a care.

        Eb                         Ab         Eb
There's someone else in your imagination, you wish that 
                           Ab
you were standing in their shoes.
      G                                 C      G   F
You'd change your life without much hesitation but would 
           G             C
you if you really had to choose?
    Fm          Dm     Ab       Fm          Bb
So, don't look around, get your feet on the ground, it's 
     Gbm       Eb   B     Gbm           B
much better by far, to be just who your are.

CHORUS:
    E                    A      Gbm          B
The other man's grass is always greener..the sun shines 
Gbm             E
brighter on the other side.
E                        A      Gbm      E        B
The other man's grass is always greener..some are lucky, 
E        Gbm  E       B                        E
some are not..just be thankful for what you've got.

Fm
Many times it seems to me there's someone else I'd rather 
                C             Fm
be..living in a world of make-believe.
Fm
To stay in bed till nearly three with nothing there to worry 
                        C            Fm
me..it'd seem to be the life I might achieve.

    Eb                            Ab          Eb
But deep inside I know I'm really lucky..with happiness I've 
              Ab
never known before.
    G                               C          G
And just as long as you are there beside me..I know that I 
                      C
could ask for nothing more.
    Fm         Dm    Ab       Fm           Bb              Gbm
And living can start with the love in your heart..so, with you 
        B     A       Gbm                      B
all the time, all the treasures I long for are mine.

The other man's grass is always greener..the sun shines 
Gbm             E
brighter on the other side.
E                        A      Gbm      E        B
The other man's grass is always greener..some are lucky, 
E        Gbm  E      B                      E
some are not..I'm so thankful for what I've got.

         E                    A      Gbm          B

Gbm             E
brighter on the other side.
E                        A      Gbm      E        B
The other man's grass is always greener..some are lucky, 
E        Gbm  E      B                      E
some are not..I'm so thankful for what I've got..(don't you
know it, now?)

         E                    A      Gbm          B
Yes, the other man's grass is always greener..the sun shines 
Gbm             E
brighter on the other side..(Fade.)
