verse 1 

G                C                           G  
Can you say your name to me, put mine after yours? 
G                C                               G  
Can we build a house of glass without windows or doors? 
G                 C                                G  
Will you learn to love yourself the way I know you should? 
G               C                                    G  
Can we find the courage there to call our friendship good? 
        Bm             G    
Call it good, call it good   

Chorus

Anita, my Anita, I was born to follow you

Anita, my Anita, I was born to follow you 
G                     C                                     G  
Don't let romance and beating hearts change what we came to do

Anita, my Anita, I was born to follow you   

verse 2 

G                    C                             G  
The world is closing in on me, I think it's time I go 
G                       C                                     G  
And with your sad young eyes you've taught me things I didn't know 
G                          C                                  G  
And my heart broke down to powder there and I wish I'd let it show 
G                     C                                G  
And I listened as you said to me you'd rather die than grow 
         Bm             G    
Die than grow, die than grow

verse 3 

G                         C                            G  
So I watched as those who ask for love, demanding some respect 
G                  C                              G  
Became the last in line to have what they come to expect 
G                C                              G  
As what nobody taught them that they so rightly deserve 
G                        C                                  G  
And the hums of their misfortune peaked, the hardest lesson learned 
       Bm              G  
Lesson learned, lesson learned   

Chorus 

G           C                         G

Anita, my Anita, I was born to follow you 
G                     C                                     G  
Don't let romance and beating hearts change what we came to do 
G           C                         G    Em  C 
Anita, my Anita, I was born to follow you   

BRIDGE  

  G                  C 
To watch us fall is why they came 
   G                    Em          C 
And fall we did, to the call of the highway 
G                    C                   Em     
Don't go home, don't look ahead, don't look behind 
D                     C      
Everything we were is dead

Then a well of hope and talent sprang, and I caught a glimpse of light 
G                             C                                G  
And I drank from there as the colors rang out loudly from your eyes 
G         C                           G  
Anita, my Anita, I was born to follow you 
G                    C                                     G  
Don't let romance or beating hearts change what we came to do 
G         C                           G  
Anita, my Anita, I was born to follow you (Repeat.  Lose yourself in it!)  

         Bm             G  
Die then grow, Die then grow 
         Bm             G  
Die then grow, Die then grow
