This is a really cool acoustic version of the song i found on the internet, 
Brandon calls it the "lounge" version.  Sorry but I don't know the names of 
some of these chords.

[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?


Anyone wanting to learn this should listen to the song to figure out the jazzy 
rythm and all the little chord variations mike plays.  and I have no idea how 
to play the solo.
