Tom : Em
Bm
I can turn
G
the grey sky blue
Bm
And I can make it rain
G
Whenever I want it to
Bm
And I can build a castle
G
From a single grain of sand
Bm
And I can make a ship sail
G
On dry land
E
But my life is incomplete
B
And I'm so blue
[Chorus]
E Bm
'Cause I .....can't get next to you ( I can't get next to you,babe)
E
I can't get next to you
Bm
I can't get next to you,babe
E
I can't get next to you
[Instrumental]
Bm
G (2x)
[Verse 2]
Bm
I can fly
G
Like a bird in the sky
Bm
I can buy anything
G
That money can buy
Bm
I can turn a river
G
into a raging fire
Bm
I can live forever
G
if I so desire
E
But I don't want it
B
all these things I can do
[Chorus 2x]
[Verse 3]
Bm
I can turn back the hands of time
G
You better believe I can
Bm
I can make the seasons change
G
Just by the wave of my hand
Bm
I can change anything
G
from one to two
Bm
The thing I wanna do the most
G
I'm unable to do
E
I'm an unhappy woman
B
with all the powers I possess
E B
'Cause man you're the key to my happiness
[Outro]
E N.C.
'Cause I.....can't get to next to you
Bm
Ooh you're blowin' my mind
E
'Cause I can't get next to you
Bm
Can't you see these tears I'm cryin'
E
I can't get next to you
Bm
Oh it's you that I need
E
I gotta get next to you
Bm
Can't you see these tears I'm cryin'
E
Can't get next to you
Bm
I,I,I,I,I,I
E
Can't get next to you
Bm
I,I,I,I,I,I
E
Can't get next to you
