Can´T Not

Included inside "Supposed 
Former...album", "Can't not" is one 
of the best
female' rock songs of the last 10 
years. It is not a single or 
anything
special, but I think it would be a 
great hit if Alanis would have
launched this song to musical market
 instead another songs like "Unsent"
or "That I would be good", really 
beautiful but maybe too much
personal to be liked by young 
audiences.




(first verse played softly, almost 
without sound, pianissimo)
Em
I'd be lying if I said I was 
completely unscathed
Em
I might be proving you right with my
 silence or my retaliation
G         A                G7   
would I be letting you win in my
        A        G  A  G7  A
 non reaction?
G         A        G7    A
how would I explain?
G                A           
how would I explain this to my 
 G7              A
children if I had them?

        Em      C
Because I can't not.
        Em      C
Because I can't not
        Em      G               
Because i can't afford to be misread

 one more time.

Em
Would I be whining if I said I 
needed a hug?
Em
Would you feel slighted if I said 
your love's not enough?
G         A        G7    A
how can I complain?

G                A            G7

who reaches for it?

        Em      C
Because I can't not.
        Em      C
Because I can't not
        Em      G             D5

        Em      C
Because I can't not
        Em      G              D5
Because i can't help wonder why you 
ask me


(Here come's the strings section and
 the piano, lyrical and
 beautiful moment, voice must be 
extreme soft)

    E               D5         
To all the unheard wisdom in the 
    A         E
schoolyard
                       D5        E
you think you're the right ones
                       A          
you think you're the charmed ones 
B
i'm sure
E            D5          
how can you go on with such 
    C#m         C
conviction?
                E              C
and who do you think you are?
          B
why do you question me?



       Em       C
Because we can't not
        Em       C
Because we can't not
        Em       G           
Because we can't help laugh at

        Em       C
Because we can't not
        Em       G             D5

        Em       C
Because we can't not
        Em       C
Because we can't not
        Em       G            D5
Because we cannot help without your 
willingness.

Why do you hinder me? why do you
     D
