G D F
We watch the old news distracted
C G
As they talked on and on in the usual way
D F
About the latest lies, deceptions
C G
We saw tomorrow, we longed for a better day
[Chorus]
C G Gmaj7
And I know why green is blue
C G D
There's so much we didn't do
Am Em G
Oh, I know why green is blue
[Instrumental]
G D F C
[Verse 2]
G D F
We heard the warning calls, ignored them
C G
We watch the weather change, we saw the fires and floods
D F
We saw the people rise, divided
C G
We fought each other while we lost our coveted prize
[Chorus]
C G Gmaj7
There's so much we didn't do
C G D
That we knew we had to do
Am Em G
And we know why green is blue

We watched the species die, we saw the coral turning
G
We watched the oceans rise
[Verse 3]
G D F
We saw the pod of whales lay bloated
C G
On the shore where they baked, but we missed that sign
D F
We saw the polar bear, she floated
C G
On a piece of ice from another time
C
So I know
