GChild [of limousines]
What's the best plCace, [That you have seen]
All of the haDnds, [That you have shook]
Home of the quCeen of, [Everything fancy]
Is there a smGell, [That you can tell]
Gives you some peCace, [Sends you to hell]
All of the bDeds, [That you have yearned]
Is there a drCeam to, [Where you’d return]
Where is the plGight, [With the most stars]
Where do you drCink, [By Echo guitars]
What’s the best shDore, [Seen from a boat]
Miniature heCads that, [Color the shore line]
If you could rGest, [A minute to tell]
Get me some grCass, [Iridescent shells]
I know there’s a nDest, [Fit with a hatch]
Sunset a gloCwin’, [Makes us all sweaty]
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Well, I don’t eGven know where to begin or how I should stCart these days
[The grDeen mountain south or,] The CClay of the westerns
The MarGyland meadows at midnight they do have a mCisty grace
[Take a tDrip to blue bayou,] Find Roy OrCbison cryin’
A contGinent molded from glass or maybe a tCown I can taste
[DreDsses that glow on,] Girls from BarcCelona
I waGnna discover the key and open the everyCwhere place
[A mix of sDky from Montana,] Dipped in FloCriDada

Where is the plCace, [We can extend]
Crooked state liDnes, [Polka dot signs]
Say that this plCace is, [A state of mind]
Pretty lip giGrls, [Paint me the halls]
Not on a strCeet, [Not near a mall]
Raise me a thDumb, [From human skin]
That isn’t judCged by, [Where it begins]
Show me the clGams, [Show me the pearls]
Mail me a nCote, [Sent from a world]
That isn’t so fDar, [And always right here]
Where all the bounCdaries, [Have disappeared]
And all the niGghts, [Are stitched with a glue]
That’s sticking to Cme, [And I’ll stick to you]
And I’ll take your haDnds, [You’ll take my face]
And everywhere hCome will, [Be a good place]
[Pre-Chorus 2]
I foGund myself there a collagin’ with all of the huCman race
[A daDncer from Ghana,] Smiling Cin Tijuana
I FrankGenstein java with touches of Prada and cCorn on the plates
[A smDear of gardenia,] In the fCair hair of Sweden
And mGaybe I actually visited some sort of mytChical place

It's easier to play with a capo on 1 so I wrote it out that way.

-----Capo 1-----

(All chord shapes relative to capo)

[Verse 1]

Child [of limousines]

What's the best place, [That you have seen]

All of the hands, [That you have shook]

Home of the queen of, [Everything fancy]

Is there a smell, [That you can tell]

Gives you some peace, [Sends you to hell]

All of the beds, [That you have yearned]

Is there a dream to, [Where you’d return]

Where is the plight, [With the most stars]

Where do you drink, [By Echo guitars]

What’s the best shore, [Seen from a boat]

Miniature heads that, [Color the shore line]

If you could rest, [A minute to tell]

Get me some grass, [Iridescent shells]

I know there’s a nest, [Fit with a hatch]

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

The Maryland meadows at midnight they do have a misty grace

A continent molded from glass or maybe a town I can taste

I wanna discover the key and open the everywhere place

[Verse 2]

Old [demented men]

Where is the place, [We can extend]

Crooked state lines, [Polka dot signs]

Say that this place is, [A state of mind]

Pretty lip girls, [Paint me the halls]

Not on a street, [Not near a mall]

Raise me a thumb, [From human skin]

That isn’t judged by, [Where it begins]

Show me the clams, [Show me the pearls]

Mail me a note, [Sent from a world]

That isn’t so far, [And always right here]

Where all the boundaries, [Have disappeared]

And all the nights, [Are stitched with a glue]

That’s sticking to me, [And I’ll stick to you]

And I’ll take your hands, [You’ll take my face]

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
