Verse 1:

C       F7     C
 I, can turn a grey sky blue,
    C                  F7    C
And I can make it rain, when-ever I want it to.
    C                    F7      C
Oh, I can build a castle, from a single grain of sand,
    C                      F7   C
And I can make a ship sail, uh, on dry land.

Chorus 1:

F       Fm7           C
 But my life is incom-plete and I'm so blue.
     F Fm7               C

 Can't get next to you, babe, I can't get next to you.

C           F7     C
 I can fly, like a bird in the sky,
    C             F7          C
And I can buy any-thing, that money can buy.
    C                  F7  C
Oh, I can turn a river,     into a ragin' fire,
C                   F7  C
 I can live forever,     If I so desire.

 I can make the season change, just by wavin' my hand.
    C                F7         C
Oh, I can change any-thing from old to new.

The thing I want to do the most; I'm unable to do.
