Bon Jovi - Do What You Can: chords

                  G#
Tonight they’re shutting down the borders
             C#               G#
And they’ve boarded up the schools
                 Fm               D#
Small towns are rolling up their sidewalks,
                            G#
One last paycheck coming through
               G#
I know you're feeling kinda nervous
             C#            G#
We're all a little bit confused
    Fm               D#
Nothin's the same, this ain't a game
                     G#
We got to make it through

As we wave outside the window
Older loved ones stay inside
Moms and babies blowin' kisses
May be saving someone's life
They had to cancel graduation
It ain't fair to Skype the prom
Our kids sit home in isolation
TV news is always on

Chorus:
                G#                  C#          G#
When you can’t do what you do, you do what you can
     Fm                     D#                            G#
This ain’t my prayer, it’s just a thought I’m wanting to send
               G#                                C#         G#
Round here we bend but don’t break, down here we all understand
                Fm          D#                  G#
When you can’t do what you do, you do what you can

The chicken farm from Akansas bought workers P.P.E
Not before 500 more had succumbed to this disease
Honest men and honest women, working for an honest wage
I got a hundred point 1 fever
And we still got bills to pay

Chorus

              C#
They built a hospital on
                Fm                D#
East Meadow in Central Park last night
          C#
Doctors, nurses, truckers,
                      G#                D#
grocery store clerks manning the front line
      A#m7
I saw Red Cross on the Hudson
            C/G#
They turned off the Broadway lights
        C#
Another ambulance screams by
               D#
There by the grace of God go I

Although I'll keep my social distance
What this world needs is a hug
Until we find the vaccination
There's no substitute for love
So love yourself and love your family
Love your neighbor and your friend
Ain't it time we loved a stranger?
They're just a friend you ain't met yet

Chorus:
When you can’t do what you do, you do what you can
This ain’t my prayer, it’s just a thought I’m wanting to send
Round here we bend but don’t break, down here we all understand
When you can’t do what you do, you do what you can
When you can’t do what you do, you do what you can
