thanks for checking out the tab . chording is as complicated as i get as i
play mostly acoustic guitar and like to get the base of the songs down . i
hope it starts you off in the right place so you can go elsewhere with it
especially the bridges into the chorus . i know something more interesting or
accurate can go there cest la vie . enjoy

sorry , didn’t tab out the opening harpsicord .

verse ( no vocals ) x 1
at this point everything is taken a half step up from original key .
you can do this or just be lazy like me and keep it in the same key

chorus :

any , any , anywhere you are
i wanna , wanna be where you are
i gotta be where you are
