                A#
Well, I've been drawin' little hearts in the mornin' paper
D#
Lookin' for a house an' a couple of acres
        A#                                    F        A#
You'll be mine some time, sooner or later and I can't wait
        A#
Like a busy old bee saving up it's honey
D#
Honey I'm saving up all my money
   A#
To have you I'll do anything I have to
F            A#
Whatever it takes

Chorus:
            D#                 A#
Whatever it takes to win your love
I'll hire me an airplane, have it paint your name
               F
Up in the sky above
      A#
I'll tell the world I'm yours, put it on a billboard
           D#
Out on the interstate
       A#
If it takes forever to get us together
      F                    A#
Honey I'll do whatever it takes

Well I've been yelling your name from a lookout mountain
Tossing my pennies in a downtown fountain
Making my wishes I'm hoping they're counting for loves sake
I'll swim upstream in a raging river
Walk through fire till you get the picture
I swear I'll bare anything to get there
Whatever it takes

Chorus

Well if it takes forever to get us together
Honey I'll do whatever it takes
Well if it takes forever to get us together
Honey I'll do whatever it takes
