Intro = verse chords

Verse1:

A C#m

I'm in a room full of people all hanging on one person's breath.

G Bm

We would all vote him most likely to be loved to death,

A C#m

And I hope he still wants it, but it might remind him of when

G A

He aimed for the bulls eye and hit it nine times out of ten.

Verse2:

Then 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.

I 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:

CHORUS:

A B/A B D F#m D E

Green is the color that everyone sees all around me

A B/A B D F#m E A

Gray is the color I see around her, but she's just a blur

D C#m Bm A

The more the crowd cheers the less I can hear

F#m C#

And they don't really care what I play

D C#m Bm E A

Might be for her, but for now it's between green and gray.
