I Can Make It If You Can - The Boomtown Rats
Mick 2009
A E G F#m E x4
A E
Somewhere a screen door slammed
Somewhere, someplace, somebody's killing a man
Down the road I'm told five people died
And I wonder are you making love to anyone tonight
Bm G
Cos she and I, we're still sitting here
Bm D
Our eyes are dry but we're bored to tears
A G
She said lets talk about the future, lets forget about the past
A D
Did I forget to tell you that the future never lasts
Chorus:
C Bm A G
Can I hold on that long
Is it worth the same old stringalong
C Bm A D
There's been a few rights but there's many wrongs
C Bm A G
I can make it if you can
C Bm A G
I can make it if you can
A E
Don't trust anything, especially love
Be careful of the broken bottles on the wall above
They burn your brain and they tear at your mind
I know I won't be making love to anyone tonight
Bm G
Cos she and I, we're still sitting here
Bm D
Our eyes are dry but we're bored to tears
A G
I said there must be some future, if there's been a past
A D
Don't talk about the present, it makes me want to laugh
C Bm A G
Can I hold on that long
Is it worth the same old stringalong
C Bm A D
There's been a few rights but there's many wrongs
C Bm A G
I can make it if you can
C Bm A G
I can make it if you can
G E D
we're gonna make it
(Guitar Solo)
A E x4
Bm G
Cos she and I, we're still waiting here
Bm D
Our eyes are dry but we're bored to tears
A G
Don't talk about the future, please don't talk about the past
A D
Lets forget about the present, it harder then to laugh and
C Bm A G
Can we hold on that long (can we)
Is it worth the same old stringalong (same old thing everytime)
C Bm A D
There's been a few rights but there's many wrongs
C Bm A G
I can make it if you can (you know I can)
C Bm A G
I can make it if you can
C Bm A G A G
I can make it if you can
