G C I once knew a girl who had daisy for fingers G C grew lollipops straight from her hair. Am D She traveled by pony and never looked lonely, Am D my friend she'd insist without care. G C Called all her family, spoke mostly harmony, G C seemed to have it figured out. Am D Painted in rainbows in shades only she knows Am D around her ideas came to sprout. C Cm G And now that we are older, she still haunts me. C Cm G Through dark and warm she always wears a smile. Em D G A So for you, my friend, a song to say, C Em F D G 'I'm still inspired by you.' G C I asked her how one could be positive and hopeful G C when everything falls apart. Am 'Life isn't fair,' she said. D 'Make it a fair,' she said. Am D 'Always be prepared,' she said. 'To sing.' G Love is invented, C and wars are prevented, G C and we can do anything. Am Chin up and be it, D for that's what I'll be Am when we're eighty years young D we'll be here, you'll see C Cm G And now that we are older, she still haunts me. C Cm G Through dark and warm she always wears a smile. Em D G A So for you, my friend, a song to say, C Em F D G 'I'm still inspired by you.' C Em F D G 'I'm still inspired by you.'

Eb F In her eyes she makes a mistake, G it's now a better place C F When love finally whisked her away from the rest, Bb Cm She wondered how we all continue to spin Eb F around and around 'til we lift off the ground, G C for what would she be without us? C Cm G And now that we are older, she still haunts me. C Cm G Through dark and warm she always wears a smile. Em D G A So for you, my friend, a song to say, C Em F D G 'I'm still inspired by you.' C Em F D G 'I'm still inspired by you.' (x3)
