Band: Dr.Hook & the Medicine Show Side: II Track: I Song: I Can't Touch The Sun First Verse

E
I can't touch the clouds for you,

E                    B
I'll never reach the Sun for you.

B
I've never done the things

B             E
That you need done for you.

E
I've stretched as high as I can reach

E                   A
I guess I'm not the one for you;

A      B                                     E
'Cause I can't reach the clouds or touch the sun for you,

E  B                                     E
No I can't reach the clouds or touch the sun.

Second Verse

E
I can't turn back time for you,

E                     B
And make you sweet sixteen again,

B
And I can't turn your barren fields

B  E
To green again.

E
And I won't sit around and talk

E                        A
Of how things might have been again,

A  B                                   E
No I can't turn back time and make you young again.

B                                   E
I can't turn back time and make you young.

Third Verse

E B
I hope you find somebody who

B   A               E
Can do the things I didn't do

E   A             E
And find a road I didn't find

E   B                E
And build a brighter world for you.

E B
I hope you find somebody bold

B         A         E
Enough to reach and take a hold

E   A               E
And guide your ever changing mind

E   A              B
And free your ever rising soul.

B     A          B
But I can't. No, I can't.

Fourth verse

E
I can't look inside your mind

And see the things you're hoping for. And I can't help you chase the dream You're groping for. You say your arms are open wide, But lord knows who they're open for. I can't know your mind or chase your dreams with you. No, I can't chase your dreams or know your mind. Fifth Verse

And when they ask about me,

You can say I was the one with you;

B   C#                                      F#
Who never touched the clouds or reached the sun with you.
