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. 

#2. 
        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

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.

#3. 
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.

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.
