Anyway by Keb' Mo'
Anyway
Tuning: E A D G B E
Key: E
This is a simplified version. To enhance it, substitute Eadd9 for E wherever you
like (Keb Mo does live sometimes.)
The chorus looks hard but they're mostly easy fingerings. The C#7#9 to C#7
transition is the hardest but the C#7#9 is optional so skip it if you like.

[Verse 1]
E
Ooh, ain't we lucky
E
And isn't it oh so strange
A
But you look at me with a lovers eyes
E
And a mind that can't be changed
E
You and I are destined
E
To share a lifetime or two
A
But we're obviously different
D
And we don't know what to do
[Chorus]
Aadd9 Adim G#m7 C#7#9 C#7
I don't have a nickel to my name
F#7add4 B7
But I love you anyway
[Verse 2]
E
On my way to clean the restrooms
E
And lock up all the doors
A
I saw your diamond earring
E
Bounce lightly on the floor
E
And I picked it up so gently
E
And I placed it in your hand
A
You politely thanked me
E
And put it back on and you ran
[Chorus]
Aadd9 Adim G#m7 C#7#9 C#7
But I don't have a nickel to my name
F#7add4 B7
But I love you anyway
[Bridge]
D Asus2
Well, I probably never touch you
E
Or even hold your hand
D Asus2
But one of these eternities
F#7add4 B7
I'd love to be your man
[Verse]
E
Thoughts that I am thinking
E
Words I dare not say
A
And I can't deny my feelings
E
But there's all this bullshit in the way
[Chorus]
Aadd9 Adim G#m7 C#7#9 C#7
But I don't have a nickel to my name
F#7add4 B7
But I love you anyway
[repeat Chorus]
Aadd9 Adim G#m7 C#7#9 C#7
But I don't have a nickel to my name
F#7add4 B7 E
But I love you anyway

Ooh, ain't we lucky
And isn't it all so strange
But you look at me with a lovers eyes
And a mind that can't be changed
You and I are distant
To share a lifetime or two
But we're obviously different
And we don't know what to do
And I don't have a nickel to my name
But I love you anyway
On my way to clean the restrooms
And lock up all the doors
I saw your diamond earring
Bouncing lightly on the floor
And I picked it up so gently
And I placed it in your hand
You politely thanked me
And put it back on your [?]
But I don't have a nickel to my name
But I love you anyway
Well, I probably never touch you
Or even hold your hand
But one of these eternities
I'd love to be your man
Thoughts that I am thinking
Words I dare not say
And I can't deny my feelings
But there's all this bullshit in vain
But I don't have a nickel to my name
But I love you anyway
But I don't have a nickel to my name
But I love you anyway
