[N] I wore my Michigan t-shirt tonight [F] for Laura, my friend [Bb] Laura's here.
[G] [D]
Paradise is in Michigan.
It's the land also.
[Cm]
[N] The official animal of Michigan is the wolverine.
Sort of a creature.
Although they no longer live in Michigan.
People scared them all away.
The official animal of Scotland is the unicorn.
[C]
[Fm] [G] [Bb]
[C] [F]
[Bb]
We [Ebm] actually had a unicorn [D] when I was a kid.
[C] The
[F] enthusiasts and [D] they adopted all these pets.
They were like foster [N] parents from the Humane Society.
A goat that had one horn.
It wasn't the sort of magical singular straight horn from the center and kind of curved [E] to the side all snaggled to.
[Bb]
Dream [Eb] of Jimmy John.

[Cm] This is so [Ab] I teach [Eb] you.
