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                
Well, I don't even know where to 
                         C
begin or how I should start these 
days
       D                           
[The green mountain south or,] The 
 C
Clay of the westerns
       G                        
The Maryland meadows at midnight 
                 C
they do have a misty grace
         D                       
[Take a trip to blue bayou,] Find 
       C
Roy Orbison cryin'

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

[Dresses that glow on,] Girls from 
    C
Barcelona

I wanna discover the key and open 
          C
the everywhere place

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

[Chorus]

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

[Bridge]

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

A bridge so old so let it go
