Anything But

[Intro]
Ab
 
[Verse]
Ab
Come here to me
Ab
I wish I was a may fly on the River Tay
Ab
I'd fit all my joys and my pleasures in one perfect day
Ab
I wish I was the sunlight just sitting on The Mississippi
     Fm                   Eb           Ab
I'd settle for a shopping trolley in The Liffey
 
Ab
In a shot I'd swap my body for a body of water
Ab
Worry the cliff side top as a wave crashing over
Ab
I'd lower the world in a flood
    Fm             Ab      Db
 or better yet I'd cause a drought
Db           Eb                Ab
If I was a rip tide I wouldn't take you out
 
[Chorus]
 
Ab                    Eb      Db
I don't wanna be anything
Ab                              Db
But I would do anything just to run away
Ab                    Eb      Db
I don't wanna be anything like this at all
Ab                    Eb           Ab
But I would do anything if you'd hear me say
 
Ab        Db
Oh, yeah, hey
Ab         Db
Go look another way
Ab       Eb      Db
Yeah, hey
   Eb     Ab
Look another way
 
[Verse 2]
Ab
Look, I wanna bе loud,
Ab                    Db
so loud, I'm talking seismic
Ab
I wanna be soft as a single stonе in a rainstick
Ab
I wanna be the thunder of a hundred thousand hooves moving quick
             Fm                   Eb           Ab
If I was a stampede you wouldn't get a kick
Ab                                            Db
I wanna be the shadow when my bright future's behind me
Ab
I wanna be the last thing anybody ever sees
Ab
I hear he touches your hand
Ab            Fm   Eb  Db
and then you fly away together
           Ab                 Db
If I had his job, you would live forever
 
[Chorus]
Ab                    Eb      Db
I don't wanna be anything, love
Ab                              Db
But I would do anything just to run away
Ab                    Eb      Db
I don't wanna be anything like this at all
Eb                   Ab
But I would do everything if you hear me say
 
Ab     Eb       Db
Oh, yeah, hey
Ab         Db
Go look another way
Ab    Eb        Db
Yeah, hey
Eb        Ab
Look another way
 
[Bridge]
Ab     Eb       Db
I don't wanna be anything, be anything
Ab         Db
But I would do anything (Go look another way)
Ab     Eb       Db
I don't wanna be, wanna be, wanna be, wanna be, wanna be
Eb              Ab
Don't wanna be anything, anything
 
[Outro]
Ab     Eb       Db
Oh, yeah, hey
Ab          Db
Go look another way (I don't wanna be anything)
Ab     Eb       Db
Yeah, hey
Eb           Ab
Look another way
