     D                     C#m     G
For you, my friend, I'd do anything shine your
       D
shoes, anything.
C#m                    Em        A  C
Lose your blues, make love with you, take you
          A    D
under my wing, anything.

For you, my hero, I'd do anything
Paint your picture, anything
Kiss your photograph even though I know you'd laugh
Stand beneath your wings, Oh, anything

A        D                        C#m   G
And for you, my love, I would do anything kiss
              D
your feet and everything.
C#m                       E          A   C
Suffer your pain but I'd ride your train, spread
          A           D
our tiny wings, baby, anything.

         D                  C#m
And for you, my son, I'd do everything.
G                    D
Protect your mind in everything.
C#m                      Em       A
I could read your lies, dry your tears from your
C                      A     D
eyes spread your tiny wings, anything.

C                   D            C
Cause everything is anything and everything is
D
anything.
    C             D             C
And everything is anything, and everything is
D
anything.
    C             D             C
And everything is anything, and everything is
D
anything.
