I Can't

CAPO: 4th FRET 

Intro 
Em 



     Em 
Well I've got the thunder in my bones 
             Cmaj7 
I've got the trouble in my soul 
 D                                       Em 
Drowning in tears my eyes were too proud to cry 

            Em                              C 
I hear you knockin' at my door, but I can't open it no more 
             D                                    Am 
'Cause this heart's half full of rain and risin' high 

         Cmaj7                            D 
Sometimes all that you can do is just survive 


Em 
I can't row you across right now 
Em 
I can't row you across right now 
     G        D       Em 
I'm too busy building a bridge 

Em 
I can't throw you a line right now 
Em 
I can't throw you a line right now 
     G        D     Em 
I'm too busy tryin' to live 


             Em 
I've been a fool for holding on 
            Cmaj7 
I've been a fool for being strong 
             D                               Em 
I've been a fool for love and I'll be a fool again (fool again) 

                Em 
As soon as the rain stops pouring down 
             Cmaj7 
As soon as I find some higher ground 
         D                                Am 
I'll be good as new but I can't tell you when 

          C                              D 
So, just keep on striking matches until then 


       Em 
'Cause I can't burn you a flame right now 
Em 
I can't burn you a flame right now 
     G        D     Em 
I'm too busy seeing the light 

Em 
I can't lift you up right now 
Em 
I can't lift you up right now 
     G        D     Em 
I'm too busy tryin' to fly 

Break 
   Em 
So let go the anchor let go the chain 
 C 
Don't reach for me and don't call my name 
 D                                    Em 
Shake off the past and baby just swim for the shore 

 Em 
Blow me a kiss and hope for the best 
 C 
Wish what you will and take what you get 
D                                 Em            C   D   Em 
Do what you want but I can't save you no moore-oore

           Em 
I got the thunder in my bones

I got the trouble in my soul 
 D                                       Em 
Drownin' in tears my eyes were too proud to cry 

Em 
I can't whisper a prayer right now 
C 
I can't whisper a prayer right now

I'm too busy baby, sayin' goodbye
