PROGRESSION#1:

F5    C5             F5
I'm sticking with you
       Bb5  C5           F5
'Cause I'm made out of glue
F5        C5              F5
Anything that you might do
Bb5  C5        F5
I'm gonna do too

F5             C5                  F5
You held up a stage coach in the rain
    Bb5  C5         F5
And I'm doin' the same
F5       C5              F5
Saw you hangin' from a tree
    Bb5     C5              F5
And I made believe it was me

F5    C5             F5
I'm sticking with you
       Bb5  C5           F5
'Cause I'm made out of glue
F5        C5              F5
Anything that you might do
Bb5  C5        F5            E5
I'm gonna do too


BRIDGE:

A5                      E5
Moon people go into the stratosphere
A5                            E5
Soldiers fighting with their Cong
         C5                       G5
But with you by my side I can do anything
        B5                             E5
When we swing, we hang past right and wrong


PROGRESSION#2:

           A5              D5
I'll do anything for you
E5            A5            D5
Anything you want me to
E5          A5
I'll do anything for you
   D5     E5                 A5
Oh whoa, I'm sticking with you [x8]

NOTES:
I came up with these chords while listening to the version of the song
on ''VU'', the 1985 compilation (recorded May 13, 1969 with Sterling
Morrison, Lou Reed, Maureen Tucker and Doug Yule). The first part and the
bridge are entirely piano and vocals while the last part adds drums and a
little guitar. It's a fairly straightforward song. There's a guitar part at
the end that goes like this:

Notation:
/ Slide

e-----------(b9)----------10-------12--------------- | 
b----10------------------------------------------- | 
g-8(b9)---8(b9)------10/11----12/13----------------- | 
D------------------------------------------------- | 
A------------------------------------------------- | 
E------------------------------------------------- | 

Repeat until end.

It's a fun song. Enjoy.
