[Intro]
D G
[Verse]
D
She's a wild flower child
G
With dreams just like a style
D
She floats on through the sound waves
G
And plays in them a while
D
Like a million trippin' daisies
G
Just dancin' oh so lazy
D
Soakin' up the sunshine
G
Celebratin' with the crazies
D G
Cuz when it's high tide
D G
Why do you get the feelin' so low, oh no
D G
Cuz when it's low tide, yeah
D G
That's when you let your feelings show, yeah
[Pre-chorus]
D G
So Mary Joanna, put the music ahead
D G
Of all those things in your life that you dread
D G
Cuz I know you wanna just play in the sand
D G
Making castles to the beat of the band
[Chorus]
Dm G
Now this I know, you blossomed on a sunny day
Bm
You didn't have
F
Nothing good to light up your way
Dm G
You put it down, that stone cold tax man faith
Bm F
And if you wanna put a smile on everyone's face
D G
For the love of the music
[Interlude]
D G
[Verse]
D G
I searched around my head
D G
Even looked under my bed
D G
Where roaches and the dust mites lay
D G
Found a dirty shirt instead
[Pre-chorus]
D
But you know the coolest thing
G
Is that you don't stain
D G
You stay clean for the love of the music in your brain
D
But you can't just keep it
G
Locked away and locked for yourself to play
D G
You gotta let them know it's just bang, bang, bang
[Chorus]
Dm G
Now this I know, you blossomed on a sunny day
Bm
You didn't have
F
Nothing good to light up your way
Dm G
So won't you roll, don't take her too seriously
Bm F
Because you can't do this that logically
Dm G
