The verses are basically the first half of the intro plus some chords so I'm
just going to write out the chords over the lyrics.
Verse 1:
Em Cmaj7
Wrapt, in “Star Wars†sheets,
Em Cmaj7
with my hand across your belly,
G D Cmaj7
we waded through the watercolor.
G D Cmaj7
we waded through the watercolor.
Em Cmaj7
And drunk in your parents house,
Em Cmaj7
junk coming out of your mouth,
G D Cmaj7
we were buried in the ice sculpture,
G D Cmaj7
we were buried in the ice sculpture,
Cmaj7
and you said
Chorus:
G D Am C
“I would be anything that you wanted me to be,
G D Am C
I would be anything that you wanted me to be,
G D Am C
I would be anything that you wanted me to be,
C D
but how could I change my body?â€

Second time through is basically the same but play a C maj to end it.
Verse 2:
Em Cmaj7
I love the picture that your mother stole;
Em Cmaj7
Em Cmaj7 Em Cmaj7
dad holds out the tiny piece he’ll release from his soul -
G D C
before he flew up in the helicopter,
G D C
before he swooped down as a door gunner,
G D C
before God gave him the favor
G D C
that meant he isn’t getting others.
Chorus:
G D Am C
“I would be anything that you wanted me to be,
G D Am C
I would be anything that you wanted me to be,
G D Am C
I would be anything that you wanted me to be,
C D
but how could I change my body?â€
Repeat a bunch to end. End on a Çmaj chord.
