[Verse 1]
You said you needed sunshine
Sick of my small-town rain
Chased some kinda daydream
On a fast-lane out-of-state
Thought his truck and his paycheck
Meant a brand‑new kind of life
'til the late fees, cheap beer
Hit harder than my goodbye
[Chorus]
You left me for greener grass
On the other side of the fence
Thought his front yard looked like heaven
Now you're camped out in regret
I'm out here on higher ground
You’re out there just lookin’ down
Greener grass, harder ground
And I’m better off, better off now (oh yeah)
[Verse 2]
Heard you moved back with your sister
Sleeping on a borrowed couch
Scrolling through our pictures
Like you finally figured it out
Yeah, that shine turned to dust quick
Fairy tale turned to a fight
But I ain't your safe bet
I already cashed you out my life
[Chorus]
You left me for greener grass
On the other side of the fence
Thought his front yard looked like heaven
Now you're camped out in regret
I'm out here on higher ground
You’re out there just lookin’ down
Greener grass, harder ground
And I’m better off, better off now
[Bridge]
Now I got peace in my driveway
New laugh in my passenger seat
Whole heart in my chest again
Two boots, one steady beat (hey!)
If you drive past this house, girl
All you'll ever see
Is a backyard you don't belong in
And a man you don't believe
[Chorus]
You left me for greener grass
On the other side of the fence
Thought his front yard looked like heaven
Now you're camped out in regret
I'm out here on higher ground
You’re out there just lookin’ down
Greener grass, harder ground
And I’m better off, better off now
Greener grass, harder ground
Yeah, I’m better off, better off now
