Pretty Green

Intro: A


Verse 1:

A
Right before I met you things were getting pretty green
A
I was on an upswing though I could hardly even think
A             F#m          G      A
I was looking out, looking out

A
Well it took me several mornings with my throat in a mangled knot
A
Sounding out my virtues and my vices and other thoughts
A
Struggling to remember the most recent things that I forgot
A                  F#m          G  A         F#m          G    A
Well I was looking out, looking out, looking out, looking out


Chorus 1:

            G   D  A          D                  A
When you're always on you feel defeated so your guardians have lost
      G  D    A               D                  A
In a foreign town, you could hear that singing it wouldn't wake up a sound
          G              F                        A
When you hear that singing it wouldn't wake up a sound


Verse 2:

A
Carbon copy portraits in a box that I was shufflin' through
A
Stuffed with paper memories that are only partly true
A
Well I've been gettin' a feelin' about someone a lot like you
        F#m          G  A        F#m           G   A
Looking out, looking out Looking out, looking out

A
When there's classic meltdowns and devastating rain
A
Hurried up for waiting more times than I care to say
A
Well it's clear to us now it's starting to change
       F#m        G A          F#m         G      A
Moving on, moving on moving forward Moving on


Chorus 2:

            G   D  A          D                  A
When you're always on you feel defeated so your guardians have lost
      G  D    A               D                  A
In a foreign town, you could hear that singing it wouldn't wake up a sound
            G              F                        A
You could hear that singing it wouldn't wake up a sound
