Dandelion -- Antje Duvekot

CAPO VII
Intro: G5, G4 x2 (see p. 2)

When Harry met Sally, it was settled               G3, G4
That Mary Jane would fall for Spiderman            A7, G4
Their story was set in stone like Tarzan & Jane    A7, Em7
Yoko & John                                        C2, Dsus/F#

You were like my Hollywood movie                   C9, G
Butterflies-in-Central-Park kiss                   C9, G
Of course you would persue me I was Julia Roberts  C9, Em*
I mean, how could you resist?                      C2, Dsus/F#

Chorus (2 beats per chord)
I am the Fourth of July                   G-G/F-C9-C9
Throwing you a fire in the sky            G-G/F-Em7-Em7
You could go blind in my light            Em-Dsus/F#-C9-C9
You were looking for an orchid            C-Dsus/F#- C9-C9
And I will always be...                   Dsus/F# x4 (w/ hammer-on)
your dandelion. Dandelion.                G-C9 x2

So I put on the best of my Warhols                  C9, G
I could have been your Marilyn Monroe               C9, G
But you had only eyes for the Mona Lisa             C9, Em*
You shared my cab ride all the way home             C2, Dsus/F#

Chorus (lead into bridge:)

I am a middle-class home        Am
I am a worn-out banjo           Em
I've never danced in Swan Lake  D/F#
I've never played the cello     G/F#?
I am the Northern Lights        C
I am invisible                  G
I am your dandelion             D/F#
I am forever wild               Dsus/F#

Chorus (I will always be... your firesfly...)

Repeat "Dandelion..." quite a few times  G, C9

End Em*-D/F#-C9 x2
