(Intro)
G Em (x2)
(Verse 1)
G Em
Me and my helmet
G Em
Such an unconventional kid
G Em
All intense and kinetic
Am D
At best, tolerated from afar
(Verse 2)
G Em
Not yet arrested
G Em
and by that, I mean betrothed
G Em
Though at start, I am duly courted
Am D
I've just not been trusted with altars
(Chorus 1)
G Em
I'm a sweet piece of work
G Em
Well intentioned, yet disturbed
Am C
Wrongly labeled and underfed
Am D
Treated like a rose as an Orchid
G Em (x2)
.......(Interlude)..........
(Verse 3)
G Em
My friends as they weigh in
G Em
Get understandably protective
G Em
They have a hard time being objective
Am D
So inside we cancel each other out
(Chorus 2)
G Em
I'm a sweet piece of work

G Em
Well intentioned, and unnerved
Am C
Enabled and misunderstood
Am D
Treated like a rose as an Orchid
(Middle Eight)
G Bm
You've brought water to me
G Bm
Making sure my bloom rebounds
G Bm
You know best of what my special care allows...
(Verse 3)
G Em
So I've lived in my blind spot
G Em
Thought myself usual when I'm not
G Em
In your garden is a nice spot
Am D
As long as it is brave and where you are
(Chorus 3)
G Em
For this sweet piece of work
G Em
High maintenance and deserted
Am C
I've been different and deserving
Am D
Treated like a rose as an Orchid
(Chorus 4)
G Em
Sweet piece of work
G Em
Overwhelmed, unobserved
Am C
I've been bowed down to but so misread
Am D
Treated like a rose as an Orchid
(Ending)
G Em (play to fade or end on G...)
(Ad Lib vocal embellishments to fade or til final G...)
