  Here's that part again 
           C#m 
Where your neighbor starts to 
Am 
Mend their fence 
    A                  B             E 
And clean up all their woes and ugly things 
E 
And so you look on over 
E 
Trying not to meet their gaze 
    A                B 
But before you get a good view 
        C#m                B 
They're staring right back at you 
       C#m             B            A 
Trying just as hard to see your own hue 
A 
Of green and blues

  This 16:9 LCD screen 
C#m              C 
Seems to make success look easy 
   A         C 
As if I even know what that means

E          B 
  So is it my fault 
C#m                     C 
  That my yard's a dark shade of asphalt? 
     A            B             C#m  D#m 
When all I really want is to be seen 
     C#m            B            A 
As a simple, lowly, sacred human being 



A               B                   E 
  Wherever this goes, I want you to notice 
  B           C#m     A           C#m 
I want you to hear, I want you to know 
     A         B 
This song as a ringing in your ear 
E     B        C      C#m      A 
These thoughts sing a sad, sad melody 
G#                   A              Am 
  But then, even the manic can live happily

E       B             C#m              C 
  Misconceptions of intent will get me down 
A 
Oh, the truth is that 
    C              E         A 
I'm actually quite well (For now) 
E             B            C#m 
  I'll tape a message to a stone 
             C            A 
And throw it through your window 
                B           C#m B 
Just so you can finally see 
         C#m             B             A 
That I'm not the one you should be envying 



A             B                   E 
Wherever this goes, I want you to notice 
  B           C#m    A           C#m 
I want you to see, I want you to know 
      A               B 
These shades that sit humbly in between 
E    B    C         C#m     A        G# 
Your yard might not seem so heavenly 
                   A 
But I promise that mine is 
A 
No better shade of green

Outro 
A                                   C#m 
  Wherever this goes, whatever ensues 
                            B 
These songs are my own these 
                    E 
Songs aren't for you 
E 
But still, I'm so glad you're listening
