G
If I were you
    Dm
I'd look at me
    C                      Em
And fail to see the things
             Am C D
I see in you
             Am C D
If I were you
       G
And if I were you
  Dm
I wouldn't let
    C                    Em
The shit you get from me
                      Am C D
Get the better of you
              Am C D
If I were you


[Pre-Chorus]
               B          Em
Don't you ever wonder why
              B         D
I could never make you cry?


[Chorus]
        G              C
Well if I were you I'd ride away
     G                 C
To a pasture new where I could graze on
    G      D/F# Em      D     C
The grass, so   succulent and sweet
   C
If I were you
                      G
I'd be through with me


[Verse 2]
G
If I were you
  Dm
I wouldn't need
   C               Em
To always read the magazines
          Am C D
That I do
                  Am C D
That make me blue
      G
So if I were you
    Dm
I'd make the break
  C              Em
Before I take my frustrations
          Am C D
Out on you
                     Am C D
Just break on through


[Pre-Chorus]
               B             Em
Don't you ever in your dreams
                 B        D
Take a lover and make her scream?


[Chorus]
        G              C
Well if I were you I'd ride away
     G                 C
To a pasture new where I could graze on
    G      D/F# Em      D     C
The grass, so   succulent and sweet
   C
If I were you

I'd be through with me


[Bridge]
D  C x2
Bm   Am
G  C x4

        G              C
Well if I were you I'd ride away
     G                 C
To a pasture new where I could graze on
    G
The green, green grass
   C
Of virgin country
    G                  C
I'd live real fast and die real young
           G      G/B     C      D
You see if I were you I'd end my days
     G        G/B     C          D
In a field of stupid sheep just grazing
    G      D/F# Em      D     C
The grass, so succulent and sweet
   C
If I were you
                    G
I'd be through with me
