Verse 1:
   E
My ancestors planted some sequoias by a road
            A                          E
I've driven down that road since I was born
    A                           E
Oh, never have you ever seen so many perfect evergreens
    Dbm                B                 E
But I would chop them all down just for you
 
Verse 2:
E
I have walked a million miles in a hundred pairs of shoes
   A                        E
In search of some universal truth
       A                         E
Well a deity just came to me and handed me a scroll to read
    Dbm            B             E
And I will gladly pass it on to you.
 
Chorus:
 Dbm B   A
-Ah-aa-ahh-
A
Anything for you
 Dbm B   A
-Ah-aa-ahh-
               Dbm
All of this is true
        E               E            A
But the best story that I could ever tell
       Dbm             B                E
Is the one where I am growing old with you.
 
Verse 3:
E
I was having rotten luck and nothing went my way
       A                             E
'Til I stumbled on a clearing in the woods.
  A                               E
I found a town of leprechauns and grabbed each one for wishing on
    Dbm               B               E
But I would let them all go just for you.
 
Verse 4:
E
I have crossed a natural plane and communed with the dead
    A                               E
But people always seem to want some proof.
   A                                E
No one even would believe, my love, that evil I got pictures of
   Dbm                  B                E
But I would throw them all out just for you.

Anything for you

All of this is true
        E               E            A
But the best story that I could ever tell
       Dbm             B                E
Is the one where I am growing old with you.

Verse 5:
   E
My scar is from a polar bear, my curse is from a witch,
              A                            E
I've caught a giant squid in all the seven seas.
     A                                  E
I've picked up rocks from distant moons astronomers will discover soon
   Dbm                 B                 E
But I would give them all back just for you.
 
Verse 6:
     E
I've gotten drunk and shot the breeze with kings of far off lands
     A                                  E
They showed me wealth as far as I could see.
          A                             E
But their kingdoms seemed all shrivelly and they cried with jealousy
       Dbm            B               E
When I leaned in and told them about you.

I'd give up anything

I'd give it all

But the best story that I could ever tell
       Dbm             B                E
Is the one where I am growing old with you.

I'd do anything for you.

I'd do absolutely anything for you.
