Intro: G 

verse 1 

G 
Child of limousines 
                  C 
What's the best place, That you have seen 
             D 
All of the hands, That you have shook 
              C 
Home of the queen of, Everything fancy 
             G 
Is there a smell, That you can tell 
                 C 
Gives you some peace, Sends you to hell 
            D 
All of the beds, That you have yearned 
             C 
Is there a dream to, Where you’d return 
               G 
Where is the plight, With the most stars 
               C 
Where do you drink, By Echo guitars 
                  D 
What’s the best shore, Seen from a boat 
            C 
Miniature heads that, Color the shore line 
              G 
If you could rest, A minute to tell 
              C 
Get me some grass, Iridescent shells 
                  D 
I know there’s a nest, Fit with a hatch 
            C 
Sunset a glowin’, Makes us all sweaty 

Pre-Chorus 1 

               G                                         C 
Well, I don’t even know where to begin or how I should start these days 
       D                            C 
The green mountain south or, The Clay of the westerns 
       G                                         C 
The Maryland meadows at midnight they do have a misty grace 
         D                              C 
Take a trip to blue bayou, Find Roy Orbison cryin’ 
      G                                   C 
A continent molded from glass or maybe a town I can taste 
    D                                  C 
Dresses that glow on, Girls from Barcelona 
    G                                      C 
I wanna discover the key and open the everywhere place 
           D                              C 
A mix of sky from Montana, Dipped in FloriDada       

G                             C 
Flori, Flori, Flori, Flori, Florida 
D             C 
FloriDada, FloriDada 
G                             C 
Flori, Flori, Flori, Flori, Florida 
D             C 
FloriDada, FloriDada

verse 2 

G 
Old demented men 
               C 
Where is the place, We can extend 
                D 
Crooked state lines, Polka dot signs 
                C 
Say that this place is, A state of mind 
             G 
Pretty lip girls, Paint me the halls 
            C 
Not on a street, Not near a mall 
             D 
Raise me a thumb, From human skin 
              C 
That isn’t judged by, Where it begins 
              G 
Show me the clams, Show me the pearls 
           C 
Mail me a note, Sent from a world 
               D 
That isn’t so far, And always right here 
                  C 
Where all the boundaries, Have disappeared 
              G 
And all the nights, Are stitched with a glue 
                   C 
That’s sticking to me, And I’ll stick to you 
                     D 
And I’ll take your hands, You’ll take my face 
                C 
And everywhere home will, Be a good place 

Pre-Chorus 2 
    G                                              C 
I found myself there a collagin’ with all of the human race 
     D                         C 
A dancer from Ghana, Smiling in Tijuana 
       G                                       C 
I Frankenstein java with touches of Prada and corn on the plates 
     D                         C 
A smear of gardenia, In the fair hair of Sweden 
     G                                       C 
And maybe I actually visited some sort of mythical place 
     D                    C 
Or was it a future, Connected by sutures 
    G                                               C 
Oh let’s go get lost in the image I made of the everywhere place 
            D                           C 
I see the lads from Osaka, Dyed in FloriDada 

G                             C 
Flori, Flori, Flori, Flori, Florida 
D             C 
FloriDada, FloriDada 
G                             C 
Flori, Flori, Flori, Flori, Florida 
D             C 
FloriDada, FloriDada
 

Bridge 

   C                                        Bm 
(Where’s) the bridge that’s gonna take me home 
                                  D 
A bridge that someone’s fighting over 
                                 C 
A bridge that someone’s paying for 

A bridge so old so let it go
