[Verse 1]

Bm Em
I fell into the ocean
A7 D
and you became my wife
G7 F#7
I risked it all against the sea
Bm
to have a better life

Bm Em
Marie you are the wild blue sky,
A7 D
men do foolish things
G7 F#7
You turn kings into beggars
Bm
and beggars into kings

[Chorus]
G D
Pretend that you owe me nothing
A7 D
and all the world is green
G D
We can bring back the old days again
A7 D D/a(A#m)
when all the world is green

Bm Em
The face forgives the mirror
A7 D
The worm forgives the plow
G7 F#7
The questions begs the answer
Bm
Can you forgive me somehow?

[Verse 4]
Bm Em
Maybe when our story's over
A7 D
We'll go where it's always spring
G7 F#7
The band is playing our song again
Bm
And all the world is green

[Chorus]
G D
Pretend that you owe me nothing
A7 D
and all the world is green
G D
We can bring back the old days again
A7 D D/a(A#m)
when all the world is green

[Verse 5]
Bm Em
The moon is yellow silver
A7 D
Oh, the things that summer brings
G7 F#7
It's a love you'd kill for
Bm
And all the world is green

Bm Em
He is balancing a diamond
A7 D
On a blade of grass
G7 F#7
 The dew will settle on our graves
Bm
When all the world is green
