I have reason to believe the 
  
grass might be a little greener 
             D  
on the other side 

G                                                                       
I have reason to believe that if I  
C 
turned myself inside out I'd get out

alive 

G                                                                       
I have reason to believe that if I  
C 
get it right just one time I would be  
G         C 
satisfied 

G 
I have reason to believe that the  
D 
grass might be a little greener  
             G    C 
on the other side 


I have reason to believe that  
everything you do or say is  
just a dream 

I have reason to believe this  
electric midnight feeling is  
filled with laser beams 

I have reason to believe that  
if I could be all that you want  
I'd have some place to hide 

And I have reason to believe that the  
grass might be a little greener  
on the other side 

I have reason to believe that if  
I were just a little taller  
I'd be better off 

I have reason to believe that if  
my head came with a switch  
I would turn it off 

And I have reason to believe  
that everything I've ever learned  
is not a goddamn lie 

I have reason to believe that the  
grass might be a little greener  
on the other side.
