[Intro] G G/F# C G C D G [Verse 1]
     G              G/F#            C         G
She draws the whole town with her pieces of chalk

        C             D           G
On the sidewalk just outside the door

G          G/F#         C           G
Flowers in pastel that die when it rains

     C            D               G
But hey, she can just plant some more

          Em            C              G
When you make a whole world, that you get to arrange

     Em            C              G              D
You keep what you like, what you don’t, you can change
[Chorus]
G            G/F#        C   G
Everything’s fine in Oliviatown,

C            D           G
everything’s always just fine.
[Verse 2]
     G          G/F#        C        G
The people all smile in a permanent way

C          D            G
Some even wave you "hello"

       G          G/F#           C           G
Their arms never tire  and they all seem to say

      C             D          G
They wish that you never would go

      Em         C         G
When you make a world of erasable dust

     Em           C               G            D
You fill it with things that you like and you trust
[Chorus]
G            G/F#      C     G
Everything’s fine in Oliviatown,

 C            D           G
everything’s always just fine
[Bridge]
     D                          C          G
Her town much too soon will be windblown away

            D                         C          G
When she’s too big to dream and too grown up to play

     D                           Em
But just let her walk, where she is for this day

        Am                  D
In her happy and heavenly world
[Verse 3]
     G           G/F#       C          G
Some day I might buy me my own box of eight

          C            D     G
Sidewalk chalk and an hour alone

      G          G/F#           C           G
I’ll fall on my knees, I will play, I will play

       C       D            G
And revisit a place I have known.

          Em             C               G
When the world gets too hard and you’re feeling the rush

        Em            C        G         D
You can hide from it all in a rainbow of dust
[Chorus]
G            G/F#      C     G
Everything’s fine in Oliviatown,

 C            D           G
everything’s always just fine

           G        G/F#       C     G
Think I’ll buy me a house in Oliviatown,

 C            D           G
everything’s always just fine.
