Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][Em][G][C][G][D]

[Verse 1]
[Gm]Times
have [Eb]changed[Cm][Gm]
And we've often rewound the [Ab]clock
Since the Puritans got a [D]shock
When they landed on Plymouth [G]Rock.
If today
Any shock they should [Cm]try to s[D]tem
'Stead of landing on Plymouth Rock,
[Gm]Plymouth Rock [D]would land[A] on them[D].

[Verse 2]
In [G]olden days, a glimpse of stocking
Was looked on as [Em]something shocking.
But [G]now, God [C]knows,[Am]
[C]Anything [G]goes.[C][G][D]

[Verse 3]
Good au[G]thors too who once
knew better words
Now only use [Em]four- letter words
[G]Writing prose.
[C][Am]

[Verse 4]
[C]Any[Cm]thing [G]goes.[C][G]
[F#]If driving fast ca[B]rs you like,
If low [F#]bars you like,
If old [Bm]hymns you like,
If bare [F#]limbs you like,
If Mae [Bm]West you like,
Or me undressed you like,
Why, [Abdim]nobody will oppo[D]se.
When [G]ev'ry night the set
that's smart is in-
Truding in nudis[Em]t parties in
Studios.
[C]

[Verse 5]
Anything [G]goes.[Am][D]
When [G]Missus Ned McLean
(God bless her)
Can get Russian reds [Em]to "yes" her,
Then [G]I suppose

[Verse 6]
[C]
[Am]Anyt[C]hing goes.[G][C][G][D]
When [G]Rockefeller [Em]still[G] can hoard en-

[Verse 7]
Ough [G]money to let [Em]Max Gordon
Pro[G]duce his [C]shows,[Am]
[C]Anything [G]goes.[Cm]
[F#]The world has gone [B]mad today
And good's [F#]bad today,
And black's [B]white today,
And day's [F#]night today,
And that [Bm]gent today
You gave a cent today
Once had [Abdim]sever al [E]cha[Abdim]t eaux.[D]
When [G]folks who still can ride in jitneys

[Verse 8]
Find [G]out Vanderbilts [Em]and Whitneys
Lack [G]baby [C]clo'es,[Am]
Any[C]thing [G]goes.[Am][D]

[Verse 9]
If [G]Sam Goldwyn can with
great conviction
Instruct Anna Sten [Em]in diction,
Then [G]Anna [C]shows[Am]
Any[C]thing [G]goes.[C][D]
When you [G]hear that Lady
Mendl standing up
Now turns a hand[Em]spring landing up-
[G]On her toes,
[C]

[Verse 10]
[Am]
Any[C]thing [Cm]goes.[G]
[F#]Just think of those [B]shocks you've got
And those [F#]knocks you've got
And those [Bm]blues you've got
From that [F#]news you've got
And those [Bm]pains you've got
(If any brains you've got)
From those [E]little radi[Abdim]os.
[D]So Mis[G]sus R., with all her trimmin's,
Can broadcast a bed [Em]from Simmons
'Cause [G]Franklin [C]knows[Am]
Any[C]thing [Daug]goes.[D][Daug]
[G]
