I Can't Touch the Sun - Dr. Hook and the Medicine Show
written by Shel Silverstein
D
I can't reach the clouds for you,
A
I'll never touch the Sun for you,
I've never done the things
D
That you need done for you.
I've streached as high as I can reach,
G
I guess I'm not the one for you;
A D
Cause I can't reach the clouds or touch the sun for you.
A D
No I can't reach the clouds or touch the sun.
D
I can't turn back time for you,
A
And make you sweet sixteen again,
And I can't turn your barren fields
D
To green again.
And I won't sit around and talk
G
Of how things might have been again,
A D
No I can't turn back time and make you young again.
A D
I can't turn back time and make you young.
A
I hope you find somebody who
G D
Can do the things I didn't do
G D
And find a road I didn't find
G A
And build a brighter world for you.
D
I hope you find somebody bold
G D
Enough to reach and take a hold
G D
And guide your ever changing mind
G A
And free your ever rising soul.
G A
But I can't. No, I can't.
(back to first verse progression)
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.
No, I can't know your mind or chase your dreams with you.
I can't chase your dreams or know your mind.
E
So say goodbye, and don't look back
D
I've had some happy days with you,
A D
Sorry I can't be the one who stays with you.
And when they ask about me,
G
YOu can say I was the one with you
A D
Who never reached the clouds or touched the sun for you.
A D
No, I can't reach the clouds or touch the sun.
A
I guess it's done,
D
I can't touch the sun for you.
(repeat the last bit as necessary, and have fun. It's a great song on their Sloppy
album, or the Shel Silverstein CD)
