G                   G/B         Cadd9
 I always liked the color of my eyes

       G                  Cadd9
'Til I knew she had brown, I'm green

G                G/B       Cadd9
 Always liked my naive innocence

       G                      Cadd9
'Til I learned she got around, I'm green
[Chorus]
Em7       D/F#          G         Cadd9
 If I got you, why does she still get me?

Em7        D           G           Cadd9
 I hate to say it, but damn, she's pretty

Em7    D/F#       G        Cadd9
 Never known this shade of envy

                              G
Just tell me I'm your Emerald City
[Post-Chorus] | 1 2 | 1 2 | 1 2 | 1 2 | |=========|============|=========|==========| | G | G/B Cadd9 | G | Cadd9 | [Verse 2]
G                    G/B           Cadd9
 If she texts in the middle of the night

           G                 Cadd9
When we're laying in the bed, is it green?

G                      G/B       Cadd9
 Wish I was cool like a shade of blue

        G           Cadd9
But her lips are rеd and I'm green
[Chorus]
Em7       D/F#          G         Cadd9
 If I got you, why does she still get me?

Em7        D           G           Cadd9
 I hate to say it, but damn, she's pretty

Em7    D/F#       G        Cadd9
 Never known this shade of envy

                              D
Just tell me I'm your Emerald City
[Bridge]
        Em7
I'm not crazy (Not crazy)

           Cadd9
I'm just a girl, kinda jealous, kinda insecure

      D                        Em7
And I hate how (I hate how) it takes me

Cadd9
Down an old road where she used to be yours

D                       Em7
 Tough to admit it, but it might break me

Cadd9
 Let me know you hate to see me hurt

         D                       Em7
'Til one day (One day), it won't faze me (Faze me)

Cadd9
Thinking about you, thinking about her

G                           G/B    Cadd9
 I'm good as gold, but when she's around

G        Cadd9
 My true color comes out
[Chorus]
Em7       D/F#      G     Cadd9
 If I got you, then baby, kiss me

Em7     D                   G       Cadd9
Tell me that you think, I'm so damn pretty

Em7     D/F#             G      Cadd9
 Double down that you'll end up with me

                              G
Just tell me I'm your Emerald City

                            G/B          Cadd9
(I'm good as gold, but when she's around)

G        Cadd9
(My true color comes out)
[Outro]
G                  G/B         Cadd9
 I always like the color of my eyes

G        Cadd9
(My true color comes out)
