Michael Franti version. On the D chord, play it the first way, and then take off your
pinky on the last string to form an original D chord like the second.

Every day's not Valentine's,

but you make it feel like most of the time,

Pickin up pieces of my life,

sometimes there's ones I just can't find,
EmD
but they found a home with you.
