 F (133211@1)        Dm (xx0231@1)          F (133211@1)          DmMe, (xx0231@1)and my helmet such an un-conventional kid
       F (133211@1)         Dm (xx0231@1)  GAll (320003@1)intense and kinetic, 
             C (x32010@1)             Fat (133211@1)best tolerated from afar

           Dm (xx0231@1)            F (133211@1)           DmNot (xx0231@1)yet arrested, and by that I mean betrothed
           F (133211@1)             Dm (xx0231@1)    GThough (320003@1)a start I am newly courted
                      C (x32010@1)             
I've just not been trusted with alters

        F (133211@1)           Dm (xx0231@1)         F (133211@1)              Dm (xx0231@1)I'm a sweet piece of work, well intentioned yet disturbed
         Bb (x1333x@1)       Gm (355333@1)     Bb (x1333x@1)             C (x32010@1)            FWrongly (133211@1)labeled and underfed, treated like a rose as an orchid

     F (133211@1)             Dm (xx0231@1)                F (133211@1)         Dm (xx0231@1) 
My friends, as they weigh in, get understandably protective
             F (133211@1)               Dm (xx0231@1)    GThey (320003@1)have a hard time being objective
              C (x32010@1)                  
So inside we cancel each other out

        F (133211@1)           Dm (xx0231@1)         F (133211@1)             Dm (xx0231@1)I'm a sweet piece of work, well intentioned and unloved
     Bb (x1333x@1)        Gm (355333@1)       Bb (x1333x@1)             C (x32010@1)              BbUnlabeled (x1333x@1)and misunderstood, treated like a rose as an orchid

                C (x32010@1)        Dm (xx0231@1)     C (x32010@1)                 BbYou've (x1333x@1)brought water to me, making sure my bloom rebounds
          C (x32010@1)              Dm (xx0231@1)   C (x32010@1)    BbYou (x1333x@1)know best of what my special care allows


So I've lived in my blind spot
Thought myself usual when I'm not
And your garden is a nice spot
As long as it is brave and where you are

For this sweet piece of work, high maintenance and deserted
I've been different and deserving, treated like a rose as an orchid

Sweet piece of work, overwhelmed un-observed
I've been bowed down to but so misread
Treated like a rose as an orchid
