Can't Be Done
Back To Back 1983
Greg Harper   *

I like this one...


E|-----------------------------------------|
B|-----------------------------------------|
G|-----------------------------------------|
D|-----------------------------------------|
A|-------5-5-7-7-5-5-7-7-5-5-7-7-5-------5-|
E|-0-1-2-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-0-1-2-3-|


And so on.  The


E|-0-1-2|


riff is used throughout the song and is 
also heard sometimes to introduce the 
C chords but on the A string like this:


A|-0-1-2|



So here we go...


G
Everywhere I dare to go, the corners that I turn
                                                      C
Im sure to see a face I know, someone who doesnt earn
                                                     G
Thats all I ever get to hear is other peoples woe

Lets climb into a rocket and well press the one and go
C  C#     D    D#             G
Although they say it cant be done
C    C#  D  D#             G
Dont say to me it cant be done


Looking how we used to be, the way and what we wore
The things we hoped the future held but always wanted more
If God had meant for man to fly he would have given wings
He didnt, so we have to make the best of everything
So lets not say it cant be done
Although they say it cant be done


                    D              A
Dont say to me everybody says it cant be done
            F         C       G
That there aint no chance at all
   D             A
Anybody can be right or wrong
            F         C       G
When there aint no chance at all



Half the world is in a mess, the other half as well
Ive got a feelin strange to me I wish that I could tell
It wont be long before we push the button I am sure
So throw away the key when I am locked behind the door
Youre telling me it cant be done
Stop telling me it cant be done


Dont say to me everybody says it cant be done
That there aint no chance at all
Anybody can be right or wrong
When there aint no chance at all


Half the world is in a mess, the other half as well
Ive got a feelin strange to me I wish that I could tell
It wont be long before we push the button I am sure
So throw away the key when I am locked behind the door
Youre telling me it cant be done
Stop telling me it cant be done
Lets pray and pray it can be done
Just pray and pray it can be done
It can be done
It can be done
It can be done


Happy rocking!
