Ive had to think up a way to survive
D
Since you said its over
D                     A
Told me good-bye
A               D/A       A
I just cant make it one day without you
D              E           A         D/A
Unless I pretend that the opposites true
F#m              E
Rivers flow backwards
D                   A
Valleys are high
D                  ( E )    D
Mountains are level
D  ( E )        A
Truth is a lie
F#m               E
Im perfectly fine
D                         A
And I dont miss you
D
And The sky is green
E                           A
And the grass is blue
A                                  ( D/A )   ( E/A )
How much can a heart and a troubled mind take
D                       D                     A
Where is that fine line before it all breaks
A               D/A       A
Can one end their sorrow

Just cross over it
D              E             A         D/A
And into that realm of insanitive bliss

F#m              E
Theres snow in the tropics
D                   A
Theres ice on the sun
D                  ( E )    D
Its hot in the arctic
D  ( E )        A
And crying is fun
F#m               E
And Im happy now

D                         A
And Im glad were through
D
And the sky is green
E                           A
And the grass is blue
F#m              E
And the rivers flow backwards
D                   A
And my tears are dry
D                  (E)    D
Swans hate the water
D  (E)        A
And eagles cant fly
F#m               E
But Im alright now
D                         A
Now that Im over you
D
And the sky is green
E                           F#m
And the grass is blue
D
And I dont love you
 D           E                    A
And the grass is blue
