Chords

This is a simplified version. To enhance it, substitute Eadd9 for E wherever you like (Keb Mo does live sometimes.) The chorus looks hard but they're mostly easy fingerings. The C#7#9 to C#7 transition is the hardest but the C#7#9 is optional so skip it if you like. chord voicing (easier voicings) Aadd9 x07600 (577600) Adim x0454x B7 x21202 Eadd9 024100 F#7sus4 244300 G#m7 4x4402 (4x444x, 464444) C#7#9 x4343x C#7 x4342x [Verse 1]
E
Ooh, ain't we lucky

E
And isn't it oh so strange

        A
But you look at me with a lovers eyes

      E
And a mind that can't be changed

E
You and I are destined

E
To share a lifetime or two

          A
But we're obviously different

       D
And we don't know what to do
[Chorus]
Aadd9   Adim   G#m7         C#7#9 C#7
I don't have a nickel to my name

      F#7add4  B7
But I love you   anyway
[Verse 2]
      E
On my way to clean the restrooms

    E
And lock up all the doors

  A
I saw your diamond earring

       E
Bounce lightly on the floor

      E
And I picked it up so gently

      E
And I placed it in your hand

      A
You politely thanked me

    E
And put it back on and you ran
[Chorus]
    Aadd9   Adim   G#m7         C#7#9 C#7
But I don't have a nickel to my name

      F#7add4  B7
But I love you   anyway
[Bridge]
        D              Asus2
Well, I probably never touch you

   E
Or even hold your hand

    D            Asus2
But one of these eternities

    F#7add4         B7
I'd love to be your man
[Verse]
E
Thoughts that I am thinking

E
Words I dare not say

      A
And I can't deny my feelings

                     E
But there's all this bullshit in the way
[Chorus]
    Aadd9   Adim   G#m7         C#7#9 C#7
But I don't have a nickel to my name

      F#7add4  B7
But I love you   anyway
[repeat Chorus]
    Aadd9   Adim   G#m7         C#7#9 C#7
But I don't have a nickel to my name

      F#7add4  B7               E
But I love you   anyway
