Chord Green And Gray by Nickel Creek

all the chords/tabs i could find for this song suck . so i made one myself . it’s in A different key and i made it by ear . - homelesspirate G Bm7 F Am G Bm7 F G:x1 x2:G Em Em C G C D G Em Em C G D G Em Am G Em G Bm7 C G D Am G G Bm7 in a room full of people , all hanging on one person’s breath . F Am we would all vote him most likely to be loved to death . G Bm7 i hope he still wants it , but it might remind him of when , F G he aimed for the bullseye and hit it nine times out of ten . that one time his hand slipped , and i saw the dart sail away . i don’t know where it landed , but i’m guessing between green and gray . we thought nothing of it , but it still haunts him like a ghost . with all eyes upon him , except two that matter the most . he says G Em Em C G C D "green is the color that everyone sees all around me . G Em Em C G D G gray is the color i see around her , and she’s just a blur . " Em Am G Em the more the crowd cheers , the less i can hear G Bm7 C G and they don’t really care what i play . it might be for her . D Am G but for now it’s between green and gray . we paid and we cheered . now we’re gone and to us that feels right . but for him every one of those evenings turns into a night . with another hotel room where he lays awake to pretend that he’s doing fine with his notebook and discman for friends . he says "green is the color everyone sees al around me . gray is the color i see around her , and she’s just a blur . " night after night what i hear , what i write fills the room and my head starts to sway . it might be for her , but for now it’s between green and gray . i want you to love me , he whispers , unable to speak . and he wonders aloud why feelings so strong make the body so weak . then he awoke . now he’s scared to death somebody heard . if it was you , and you know her , please don’t say a word .
