There's an Eb chord fingerpicked in the background for most of the song, with some variation.

[Verse 1]
Eb Cm We took a flight to the Pacific Northwest Ab I've had a longing to go there deep in my chest
Like a dream
[Verse 2]
Eb Cm Left Portland in the mornin' headed for the coast Ab Feels like middle of nowhere, windin' down this road Ab And then I see it
This can't be real
[Chorus]
Eb Bb Ab I've never seen a greener green than that Eb Bb Ab The sea salt air I'm breathin' brings life back Eb Cm Together, we're alive and free, holdin' hands on the beach Ab And I remember what it is to be Eb Cm Ab So green Eb Cm Ab It was so green
[Verse 3]
Eb Cm Take a lighthouse tour, we saw the octopus tree Ab Fm Feels like some Wes Anderson movie scene Ab In the breeze
[Verse 4]
Eb Cm Made a bonfire on the beach, talked late into the night Ab Fm We made love after bottles of cheap red wine Ab Fm It was way too sweet (mmm, yeah) Ab Bb You taste so swee-eet
[Chorus]
Eb Bb Ab I've never seen a greener green than that Eb Bb Ab The sea salt air I'm breathin' brings life back Eb Cm Together, we're alive and free, holdin' hands on the beach Ab And I remember what it is to be Eb Cm Ab Fm So green Eb Cm Yeah, it was so green
[Interlude]
Ab Fm Eb Cm Ab Fm Eb Cm Ab Fm Yeah-eah-eah-e - a - h, yeah, yeah, oh
[Chorus]
Eb Bb Ab I've never seen a greener green than that Eb Bb Ab The sea salt air I'm breathin' brings life back Eb Cm Together, we're alive and free, holdin' hands on the beach Ab And I remember what it is to be
You and I rememberin' what it is to be
Eb Cm Ab Bb So green Eb Cm Ab It was so green
