G          G
I always liked the drama
C           C
I always liked the joke
D          D
I always liked the love 
    C           C
And I always liked the smoke

G            G     C         C
I've never been a poster child of my days
D             D
But I sent a lot of post cards
C                  *hit*
And yours is on its way
             G         C  D
Do do do do do do 


Gx2 
G          G
I traded in my pong hops
C           C
For a bar right through my ear
D           D
It kind of hurts to sleep on
C           C
But pain's not what I fear

G          G        C          C
I shiver at the prospect of being just one thing
D          D
I missed a lot of targets
C                  *hit*
But I never lost my aim
             G         C  D           
Do do do do do do 

G           G
I've done a lot of research
C           C
I've read a lot of books

D            D
I've turned a lot of pages
C                C
I've seen some dirty looks

G            G            C              C
But I can brave the weather for a chilly glance from you
      D             D
'Cause somewhere in the distance
C                     *hit*
The sun is peeking through

Do do do 
Do do do 
             G
Do do do do do do
             C           
Do do do do do do
             D  
Do do do do do do
             C
Do do do do do do
*Repeat one more time*

G              G
I've always been a flower
C              C
I've always been a tree
D              D
A cabin in the forest
C              C
A blanket on the beach

G               G  C              C
Never in my whole life would I choose just one
D                 D
I've always loved the moonlight
C                C
I've always felt the sun

G               G    C            *ring out*
Somewhere in the middle of a sunset and a dream
G           G
Is the prettiest gardenia 
C           C
The prettiest gardenia
D           D
The prettiest gardenia 
C           C *ring out*
That you've ever seen
