[Intro]
Dmaj7 D#maj7 Bmin7 A#maj7

[Verse 1]
Dmaj7(2)                    C#maj7 Cmaj7                              A6 Aaug5
A Certain Shade of Green, tell me is that what you need?
Dmaj7(2)                             C#maj7 Cmaj7
All signs around say move ahead, could someone please explain to me
           A6        Aaug5
your ever present lack of speed
Dmaj7(2)                                   C#maj7
Are your muscles bound by ropes?
Cmaj7                                   A6 Aaug5
Or do crutches cloud your day?
Dmaj7(2)                                  C#maj7
My sources say the road is clear.
Cmaj7                                   A6 Aaug5
And street signs point the way.

[Chorus]
Dmaj7                               D#maj7 Dmaj7
Are you gonna wait around till 2012 A.D.
Bmin7                              A#maj7
What are you waiting for, a certain shade of green?
Dmaj7                         D#maj7 Dmaj7
I think I grew a gray watching you procrastinate
Bmin7                             A#maj7
What are you waiting for, a certain shade of green?

[Verse 2]
Would a written invitation
Signed, Choose now or lose it all
Sedate your hesitation?
Or inflame and make you stall?

You've been raised in limitation
But that glove never fit quite right
The time has passed for hand-me-downs
Choose anew, please evolve
Take flight

[Chorus]
Dmaj7                                D#maj7 Dmaj7
Are you gonna wait around till 2012 A.D.
Bmin7                               A#maj7
What are you waiting for, a certain shade of green?
Dmaj7                        D#maj7 Dmaj7
I think I grew a gray watching you procrastinate
Bmin7                               A#maj7
What are you waiting for, a certain shade of green?
