Anyway by Kerrigan and Lowdermilk







         Anyway 







Tuning: E A D G B E

[Intro]
Dbsus2
 
I didn’t expect to see you here –
I mean outside, smoking.
                                 Gb2
I’m more of a nicorette girl these days.
Ab
I’m joking.
Dbsus
I mean – I did quit.
                              Gb
But who feels like joking now?
Ab/Gb    Gb2      Ab
I’ll see you your scowl
Ab
And raise you a furrowed brow.
 
Anyway.
Dbsus2
Anyway.
 
Ab
            Dbsus
Do you remember how we used to read
Ab
Rilke, Joyce?
        Dbsus
And we barely understood it,
        Ab            Dbsus2
But it gave us a voice
Or a language…
Ab
I don’t read poetry anymore.
Dbsus       Db2
But if I did,
       Absus2                      Bbm9
I’d be reading it tonight for sure.
Absus2 Ab  Absus2
Oh. Oh.
 
              Dbsus2              Ab
I keep thinking about how the timing seems false.
          Dbsus2                  Ab
How some days seem faster than my fucking pulse.
    Dbsus2
And others go so slow.
                Gb2
Like this morning
                Absus2
Feels like a month ago.
Gb2/Bb Absus2
Oh. Oh.
Gb2/Bb Absus2
Oh. Oh.
 
Absus2
I feel like I’m underwater.
I feel like I’m underwater.
        Ab
I feel like I’m underwater.
Anyway.
Dbsus2
Anyway.
 
Ab
There’s this building you pass
Ab
On the subway to Queens.
Ab
It’s on the L or the R or the one that’s green.
Ab
It’s covered in tags,
Ab
Bright hieroglyphics.
                  Ab
These fifteen-year-olds –
They’re so fucking prolific.
        Dbsus2
I’m commuting,
Dbsus2
I’m eating my goddamn apple
And they’re secretly painting their Sistine Chapel.
        Gb2/Bb Ab/Bb Gb2/Bb
But whatever,
Absus2   Ab      Absus2   Gb2 Ab/Gb GbM9
It’s like they know their odds.
Db/F
If you're gonna die young,
Ebm7             Absus2 Gbsus2 Ab  Gbsus2
You'd better live like gods.
Ab    Gbsus2
Gods.
Ab    Gbsus2
Gods.
 
And me?
Bbm11
I’m not doing anything.
Ab
I’m not helping or cleaning.
                 Bbm11
I’m not even crying.
I’m not doing anything.
                Absus4
She’d be so goddamn helpful.
                                 Ab/Gb
Well, fuck her for dying ’cause I,
I’m not writing her elegy.
    Ab2
Not me.
                          Ab/Gb
I’m not writing that down.
Ab7sus4                   Bbm11
They would scrawl her name on a city wall
         Ab
But I’m a fucking clown.
                Gb2
I’m making jokes
So I don’t drown.
        Gb2
I feel like I’m underwater.
        Ab
I feel like I’m underwater.
        Gb2
I feel like I’m underwater.
        Ab
I feel like I’m underwater.
        Gb2
Like the whole world is underwater.
        Ab
Like I’m screaming out underwater.
        Gb2                      Ab
I feel like I’m underwater these days.
Gb2 Dbsus2
Anyways.
Anyway.
 
                  Dbsus2
I didn’t expect to see you here.
I mean – thanks for coming.
                                   Gb2             Ab
I thought you’d oppose the use of religious rites as numbing.
Dbsus2
I mean – it is dumb.
                               Gb  Ab/Gb
But what if she can hear them pray?
Gb2   Ab
I mean what the fuck do we know?
Ab
Who are we to say?
Ab
If there was anyway.
    Dbsus2
Anyway.
