Anywhere But Here Tab

CAPO 2!

(Verse 1)
                            
Man I hate you found me here
                            
With whiskey on my breath
                                
I know I should be ashamed   
                                 
So much for those twelve steps 
                                 
He said "No my son, I know you're doing your best
                                
With all you've been through, Hey I understand
                         
I only came in here to be your friend
                      
You know she still asks about you
                                  
And wonders how you're doing and where you've been


(Chorus 1)
                                          
Tell her I'm in Tampa on the causeway, 

Watching the waves roll in
                                
Tell her I'm in Aspen, in a cabin, 

Finding myself again
                    
Tell her that I'm happy and I've moved on

Better than I've ever been
                                  
Just don't tell her that you saw me

Drowning in this bottle
                      
Trying to make her disappear
                                 
Tell her I'm anywhere, anywhere but here

Break:     


(Verse 2...same chords as verse 1)

It would only break her heart if she knew the truth
You see I told her when she left, this is the last thing I would do
Tomorrow, I swear I'm starting over again
I've made it this far and I know how it ends
But she doesn't have to find out where I am
So if you see or hear from her again

(chorus 2...same chords as chorus 1)

Tell her I'm in Baton Rouge, Louisiana
Selling cars five days a week
Tell her I'm in Mobile Alabama
Getting back on my feet
Tell her that I'm happy and I've moved on
Looking better than you've ever seen
Just don't tell her that you saw me drowning in this bottle
Trying to make her disappear
Tell her I'm anywhere, anywhere but here
Tell her that I'm happy and I've moved on
But let her know that I still care
Tell her I'm anywhere, anywhere but here
