Interior wall paint

Hello,
Can someone please explain the color difference between the color that I chose to paint the walls and the actual color that it turned out on our wall.
Here are the photos
Color Behr Chic Grey - looks totally different on our wall.
TIA!

Your light bulbs are throwing everything off. It is giving everything in there a yellow hue. Change your light bulbs, to daylight type about 4000k led. Then see how your new paint looks.

Thank you! I read about the yellow oak reflecting and making it look blue, but didn’t think about light bulbs!! Will def change them to see if it makes a difference.
