Title: “Wherever, whenever”
Album: Laundry Service
tabbed by Roy Uno
This song can be played with a capo or without. So, I’m going to put out both versions at the same time. The capoed version is first:
NOTES: The 2nd fret is capoed. All notations are relative to capo.
Here is the intro and the chords that are used in the fill, verse, chorus, and prechorus.

VERSE1:
Bm
Lucky you were born that far away so
F#m
We could both make fun of distance
G
Lucky that I love a foreign land for
D A
The lucky fact of your existence
Bm
Baby I would climb the Andes solely
F#m
To count the freckles on your body
G
Never could imagine there were only

Ten million ways to love somebody

But that’s the deal my dear
FILL:
Bm, Em, A x2
VERSE2:
Bm
Lucky that my lips not only mumble
F#m
They spill kisses like a fountain
G
Lucky that my breasts are small and humble
D A
So you don’t confuse them with mountains
Bm
Lucky I have strong legs like my mother
F#m
To run for cover when I need it
G
And these two eyes that for no other
D A
The day you leave will cry a river
PRECHORUS:

Le lo lo le lo le,
Bm
Le lo lo le ole,

Can’t you see

I’m at your feet

Le lo lo le lo le,
Bm
Le lo lo le ole,
G
Think out loud…
A
Say it again….

Le lo lo le lo le ole!
Bm
Tell me one more time!
G
That you’ll live
A
Lost in my eyes!
CHORUS:
Bm G
Whenever, wherever
D A
We’re meant to be together
Bm G
I’ll be there and you’ll be near
Em A
And that’s the deal my dear
Bm G
There over, hereunder
D A
You’ve got me head over heels
Bm G
There’s nothing left to fear
Em A
If you really feel the way I feel
