[C#]
[C#m] [F#] I [B]
[C#]
[C#m] [F#] [B] [C#m]
[B] was caring [C#] all the way, [G#m] but [D#]
isn't [B] there, [C#m] isn't [B] there at [C#] all?
[B] Smallest doubt can [C#] swell and grow, [B] and all hope drinks it [C#m] to,
[D#] Denver [B] ends, it [C#m] makes no, [B] Denver ends to [C#] me.
[C#m] I was only [C#] five when I heard the tale of a little train that says,
I think I can, but what's hard to give is hard to get,
and once you've lost it, it's always gone, [C#m] it's [F#m] always gone.
[D#] [C#]
Sometimes [B] I wish that I [C#] could fly, [B] scared of wondering [C#] what's on [E] her mind,
what [F#] was on [B] my mind this [C#] time, [B] but constellation [C#] cares.
Oh, it's [B] the next time, will [C#] you [B] take the time?
It [C#] will [B] take some time.
[A]
[B]
Don't misunderstand, [C#m] [B]
half the [C#] time I can.
[B]
Don't [C#] misunderstand, [B]
half the time, I don't [C#] think I can.
I was only five when I heard the tale of a [A] little train that said, I think [F#] I can,
[C#] but what's hard to give is hard to get, and once you've lost it, [A] it's always gone, [F#] it's [B] always gone.
[C#]
I heard the whistle in [A] our father's car, the [F#] biggest [B] train of all,
[C#]
it's speeding, pushing, forcing, split, I'm opening it, just show [A] me how it's done, show [F#] me how [C#m] it's done.
[A]
[B]
[C#] [B]
Half the time [C#m] I can.
[C#]
Don't [D#m] misunderstand, [C#]
half the time, I only [G#m] [F#] think I can.
[C#]
I [D#m] [C#]
[D#m] only think [C#] I can, think I can, think I can.
