Dm
Always caring always mine
                         A#
Always reaching for what isn't there
        G
It just isn't there at all
Dm
The smallest doubt can swell and grow
                          A#
And all hope shrinks into indifference
            G
It makes no difference to me

Dm
I was only five
                                    A#
When I heard the tale of the little train that said
            G
"I think I can"
Dm
But what's hard to give is hard to get
                                    A#
And once you've lost it it's always gone
            G
It's always gone

Dm
Sometimes I wish that I could cry
                            A#
Instead of wondering what's on her mind
         G
What was on my mind this time
Dm
For consolation there's always a next time
              A#
But will you take the time?
        G                A#
It will take some time

C              Dm
Don't misunderstand
C              Dm
Half the time I can
C              Dm
Don't misunderstand
C                    Dm
Half the time I only think I can

Dm
I was only five
                                    A#
When I heard the tale of the little train that said
           G
"I think I can"
Dm
But what's hard to give is hard to get
                             A#
And once you've lost it it's always gone
     G
It's always gone

Dm
Standing on the railroad tracks
                            A#
I hear the whistle - the godfather's call
            G
The biggest train of all
Dm
It's speeding closer towards the bridge
                           A#
I'm hoping it can show me how it's done
        G                A#
Show me how it's done

C               Dm
Don't misunderstand
C               Dm
Half the time I can
Dm              Em
Don't misunderstand
Dm                   Em
Half the time I only think I can
Dm              Em
Don't misunderstand
Dm                   Em
Half the time I only think I can
        Dm
Think I can
Think I can
Think I can
