C
I run a little insurrection that moves in the direction that
F G F G
beauty is beauty in spite of perfection,
F
see the crosses at the roadside
G C G7
the thorn bush is a blazing in bloom

C
Put your feet in the sand, a lukewarm beer in your hand
F G F G
momma let down your hair,
F G
yes, I chipped a tooth, no need to call home,
C
I don't have to be anywhere,
Chorus:
G
We can hear the bossanova
C
we can sway the night away
F
the steps of the dance are best left up to chance
G
Better Beautiful then Perfect anyway
C
and while the moon wanes and waxes death and taxes
F G F G

F G
Life is grand, love is real,
C
Beauty is Everywhere.

though she was blindfolded, gagged and bound
now see the poppies pushin' up through the bones on the ground
but the body's never found
Chorus x2
G
can you hear the bossanova?
C
let us sway the night away...
