VERSE:
 
G                   C      
  When Im giving advice to others 
G                            G G2  
  I take more than I can give 
     D      
This birds eye view 
          C              D             G  G4  G    G4 G 
Of what I want you to do learn how to live 

G                  C   
  And I really dont have to suffer 
G                     G G2  
  I still do it anyway 
      D 
Im a diamond in the rough 
         C           D        G  G4 G 
Or Im a dirt clod in the clay 

G             F 
  Guess what?   I lost my job 
Em                  Cm   Cm4   
  Its just my luck 

G  G4 G   
G  G4 G 

G                      C 
  Reveal youve always been the actor 
G                          G G2 
  With those puppy dog eyes 
     D                 
Well one of yall is telling the truth 
    C                D   G 
The other one is lying 

G                     C 
  Its someone elses fault so often 
G                                        G G2 
  Youre getting rude, youre getting tall 
       D 
Its a great big world 
          C             D            G  
your translations just a little off 

G          F        
  So what,   I made a mistake 
Em              Cm      G 
  to try to hiiide the tiny 
F             Em     Cm 
  The tiniest lie 
                  G 
gets a little bit larger everyday 
   F                Em            Cm 
It grows, til its out of control 

G    G    G    G 
D    C  D G    G  C 

G                       C 
  Ive been giving my advice to others 
G                               G G2 
  I try to tell them how to live 
         D 
A little lying, a bit of truth 
            C                  D 
Is what Id like for you to do and how to give 

G  G4 G   
G  G4 G 

G                     C 
  And I really didnt need to suffer 
G                     G G2 
  Still did it anyway 
       D 
What a great big world 
         C              
I better find some way to stay 

G  G4 G   
G  G4 G 

G             F 
  Guess what?   youre getting old 
Em                  Cm 
   Still gotta grow up 

G
