Chords

This is how I play the song! Suggestions and corrections welcome! I will try to separate the lyrics by what I think is Panda singing in [brackets.] (All chord shapes relative to capo) G [Verse 1]

Child [of limousines]

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

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]

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]

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 green mountain south or,] The Clay of the westerns

The Maryland meadows at midnight they do have a misty grace

[Take a trip to blue bayou,] Find Roy Orbison cryin'

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

[Dresses that glow on,] Girls from Barcelona

I wanna discover the key and open the everywhere place

           D                              C
[A mix of sky from Montana,] Dipped in FloriDada     
[Chorus]

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

[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 x4 [Chorus]
