As recorded by Status Quo (From the 1983 Album BACK TO BACK) [Intro] G5 [Verse 1]
G5
Everywhere I dare to go, the corners that I turn

G5
I'm sure to see a face I know, someone who doesn't earn

       C5
That's all I ever get to hear is other people's woe

      G5
Let's climb into a rocket and we'll press the one and go

  C5                          G5
Although they say it can't be done

      C5                    G5
Don't say to me it can't be done
[Verse 2]
G5
Looking how we used to be, the way and what we wore

G5
The things we hoped the future held but always wanted more

   C5
If God had meant for man to fly he would have given wings

   G5
He didn't, so we have to make the best of everything

   C5        D5              G5
So let's not say it can't be done

   C5         D5              G5
Although they say it can't be done
[Chorus]
      C5     D5                   A5
Don't say to me everybody says it can't be done

           F5       C5        G5
That there ain't no chance at all

D5             A5
Anybody can be right or wrong

           F5       C5        G5
When there ain't no chance at all
[Verse 3]
G5
Half the world is in a mess, the other half as well

G5
I've got a feelin' strange to me I wish that I could tell

   C5
It won't be long until we push the button I am sure

   G5
So throw away the key while I am locked behind the door

       C5      D5             G5
You're telling me it can't be done

     C5      D5             G5
Stop telling me it can't be done
[Chorus]
      C5     D5                   A5
Don't say to me everybody says it can't be done

           F5       C5        G5
That there ain't no chance at all

D5             A5
Anybody can be right or wrong

           F5       C5        G5
When there ain't no chance at all

G5
Half the world is in a mess, the other half as well

G5
I've got a feelin' strange to me I wish that I could tell

   C5
It won't be long until we push the button I am sure

   G5
So throw away the key while I am locked behind the door

       C5      D5             G5
You're telling me it can't be done

     C5      D5             G5
Stop telling me it can't be done

      C5       D5 N.C. D5        G5
Let's pray and pray    it can be done

     C5       D5 N.C. D5        G5
Just pray and pray    it can be done
[Outro] G5
