The Grass Is Always Greener Chords

[Intro]
G  D  G  N.C.
 
[Verse 1]
       G
Yah, I wish I lived in the country
               D
So I could run around
 
Pickin' chicken dinner
                            G
Diggin' taters from the ground
  G                                           C
I wish I lived in the country Life would be so keen
                          G
But I'm stuck here in the city
          D               G
Where the grass is not as green
 
 
[Verse 2]
   G
I wish that it was summer
                            D
When this chilly wind don't blow
 
I almost can't remember a time
                              G
When there weren't 10 feet of snow
  G
I wish that it was summer
                  C
I'd run a country mile
        C               G
But the grass is always greener
        D                  G      N.C.
If you ain't seen it for a while
 
 
[Chorus]
                   D
I go from here to there
                                     G
My pockets and my mind ain't got no sense
             D
I never get nowhere
      C (am)                  D                 G     N.C.
And I always think I'm on the wrong side of the fence
 
 
[Instrumental]
G  D  G  G  D  G
 
[Verse 3]
  G
I wish I could play the guitar
                       D
That'd be a beautiful thing
 
Imagine all the songs I'd sing
                       G
If I had just one more string
  G
I wish I could play that guitar
                          C
But this banjo's hard to lose
        C             G
And the blue-grass is greener
D                   G      N.C.
When you've got the blues
 
 
[Instrumental]
G  D  G  G  D  G
 
[Verse 4]
  G
I wish I had me a house
                        D
Start puttin' down some roots
 
A place to hang my hat
                   G
A place to wipe my boots
   G
I wish I had me a home
                         C
Instead of livin' on the road
        C               G
But the grass is always greener
         D             G    N.C.
When it isn't yours to mow
 
 
[Chorus]
                  D
I go from here to there
                                    G
My pockets and my mind ain't got no sense
            D
I never get nowhere
      C                       D                 G
And I always think I'm on the wrong side of the fence
        C               G              D              G
But the grass is always greener on the other side the fence
        C               G              D      D7       G
Yah the grass is always greener on the ot-her side the fence
