Do What You Can Chords by Bon Jovi

_ _ _ _ The crisis in New York is reaching a critical mass.
The city is ordering shelter in place.
Only essential workers are permitted to leave their homes.
Paramedics have been empowered to make life and death decisions.
New Yorkers have the reputation of being tough, of being resilient.
New York will get through this.
We will [Eb] get through [Ab] this.

[Db] _ [Ab] _ _ _ [Eb] _ [Ab] _ Tonight they're shutting down the parks.
And [Db] they're closing [Ab] up the schools.
Small towns [Fm] are rolling [Eb] up the sidewalks.
One last paycheck [Ab] coming through.
I know you're feeling kind of nervous.
Or a little bit confused.
Nothing's the [Eb] same.
This ain't a game.
We've got [Ab] to make it through.
_ .
_ _ _ _ [Db] _ [Ab] _ As we wave outside the window,.
Older loved ones stay inside.
[Fm] Moms and babies [Eb] blowing kisses.
Maybe saving [Ab] someone's life.
They had to cancel graduation.
It ain't [Db] fair to [Ab] stop the bomb.
[Fm] I guess sit home in [Eb] isolation.
TV news is [Ab] always on.
When you can't do what you do,.
You [Db] do [Ab] what you can.
[Fm] This ain't my [Eb] bed.
It's just a thought I wanted [Ab] to send.
Down here we've been so great.
[Db] Down here we all [Ab] understand.
When [Fm] you can't do [Eb] what you do,.
You do [Ab] what you can.
_ .
_ _ _ [Db] _ _ [Ab] _ The chicken farm from Arkansas.
For workers, PPE.
Not before [Eb] 500 more.
had succumbed to [Ab] this disease.
Honest men and honest women.
Working for an honest wage.
I [Fm] got a hundred [Eb] for one fever.
And we still got [Ab] bills to pay.
When you can't do what you do,.
[Db] You do [Ab] what you can.
[Fm] This ain't my [Eb] bed.
It's just a thought I wanted [Ab] to send.
Down here we've been so great.
Down here we all understand.
When [Fm] you can't do what [Eb] you do,.
You do what [Ab] you can.
They [Db] built a hospital on East [Fm] Meadow.
In Central [Eb] Park last night.
[Db] Doctors, nurses, truckers, grocery [Ab] store clerks,.
Men in [Eb] the front lines.
[Bb] I saw a red cross on the hutton.
[Ab] They turned off the Broadway lights.
[Db] Another ambulance swings by.
_ Step [Eb] by the grace of God.
Go hide.
_ [Ab] Although I'll keep my social distance,.
[Db] What this world needs [Ab] is a hug.
[Fm] Until we find the [Eb] vaccination,.
There's no substitute [Ab] for love.
So love yourself and love your family.
[Db] Love your neighbor [Ab] and your friend.
[Fm] Anytime we [Eb] love a stranger,.
[Db] Just a friend you ain't met yet.
_ When [Ab] you can't do what you do,.
You do what you can.
[Fm] This ain't my [Eb] bed.
It's just a thought I wanted [Ab] to send.
Down here we've been so great.
Down [Db] here we all [Ab] understand.
When [Fm] you can't do what [Eb] you do,.
You do what [Ab] you can.
When [Fm] you can't do what [Eb] you do,.
You do what [Ab] you can.
