Taking a Page Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]I c[A]an[D][A][G][A][G][A]
[D]see it in [A]the way
[D]That you are [A]the painted
[G]Flowers in the big [A]parade
Flowers in [G]the big [A]parade
[D]Deep inside your [A]heart
[D]Staring at [A]the sky
[G]Calling out [A]the shapes
[G]Clouds make as they pass [A]by

[Verse 2]
[D]And first they thank you by
[G]pulling out your tongue
[D]And you apologize for being
where you're from
But I could hear the animals
painted on the cave

[Verse 3]
And I was [D]taking [A]a page
From my [G]own mistakes
[A]It was an [G]empty boo[A]k
Until I [G]took [A]a look
I was [G]taking a page [A](taking a page)
From all the time I spent
With a [G]vanity [A]tha[G]t knows no end[A]

[Verse 4]
The [D]many unknown [A]thrills
[D]Hard to trans[A]late
[G]Time your all [A]the time
[G]Elegant heart [A]rate
[D]She would look at [A]her [D]non-linear
[A]As As she [G]reaches in
her pocket [A]to find
[G]All of [D]human[A]kind[D]
I'm in my [A]Free [D]Tibet

[Verse 5]
[G]shirt
that's made [D]in China
With evolution's last jump
[G]ing off point be[D]hind ya
But I've [Bm]got an in[D]finity
of [A]things left to refuse

[Verse 6]
And I was [D]taking [A]a page from
[G]Carole [A]King
[D]You're so [G]far [A]away
Doesn't [G]anybody [A]stay?
I was [G]taking [A]a page from
remembering
There's so [G]many things
[A]Right the[G]re under my skin
[A][D]
[G][D]

[Verse 7]
[D]Wandering through a [A]world
[D]Neither of us under[A]stand[D]s
And when you [G]think you
[A]just can't stand it
[G]Zoom out and [D]see the [A]planet

[Verse 8]
'Cause [D]love's a little like
Crowd surfing in an empty [A]club
Oh, [G]that's a little bit [A]like
[G]Something a lot like [A]love
But [D]things could

[Verse 9]
really be much [A]worse
At [G]least there's smiley [A]face, oh
But [G]I can't take [A]no more
[G]Guitar solo or car [D]chase
Words tend [A]to mean the most in

[Verse 10]
[G]
songs that are just [D]music
Do you ever think that colors say
"Hey, who's your favorite human?"
But I was [Bm]stranded [D]in the place
of my favorite details

[Verse 11]
And I was [A]taking [G]a page[A]
From my [G]imaginary [A]life
[D]Where I'm a [G]good [A]housewife
Yeah, [G]that sounds [A]nice
I was [G]taking a page [A](taking a
page)
From never [G]feeling [A]like
I was a [G]girl or [A]a guy
But [G]I had to [A]try
