Chorus:
[Am] [C/B] [C] [F] [Am] [G] [C]
[C]My ancestors planted some sequoias by a road
I've driv[F]en down that road since I was bo[C]rn
Oh nev[F]er have you ever seen so m[C]any perfect evergreens
But I [Am]would chop them all[G] down just for yo[C]u
[C]I have walked a million miles in a hundred pairs of shoes
In search [F]of some universal tru[C]th
Well a [F]deity just came to me and [C]handed me a scroll to read
And I w[Am]ill gladly [G]pass it on to y[C]ou
[Am] [G] [F]
Anything for yo[Am]u [G][F]
All of this is tru[Am]e
But the [C/B]best story tha[C]t I could ever tel[F]l
Is the [Am]one where I am g[G]rowing old with yo[C]u
I was having rotten luck and nothing went my way
Til I stumbled on a clearing in the woods
I found a town of leprechauns and grabbed each one for wishing on
But I would let them all go just for you
I have crossed a natural plane and communed with the dead
But people always seem to want some proof
No one even would believe my love, tha evil I got pictures of
But I would throw them all out just for you
Anything for you
All of this is true
But the best story that I could ever tell
Is the one where I am growing old with you
Bridge is the same progression as the verses
My scar is from a polar bear, my curse is from a witch
I've caught a giant squid in all the seven seas
I've picked up rocks from distant moons astronomers will discover soon
But I would give them all back just for you
I've gotten drunk and shot the breeze with kings of far off lands
They showed me wealth as far as I could see
But their kingdoms seemed all shrively and they cried with jealousy
When I leaned in and told them about you
I'd give up anything
Anything for you
I'd give it all
All of this is true
But the best story that I could ever tell
Is the one where I am growing old with you
A[Am]ll I've ever w[C/B]anted see, w[C]as to tell you hon[F]estly [Am]
I'd do any[G]thing for yo[C]u
I'd do ab[Am]solutely any[G]thing for yo[C]u
