Lyrics

When you’re on your own,

you don’t know which way to go.

There’s (D)too man y signs and ar rows.

You have n’t laughed in a while

the when you can’t e ven fake a smile.

and When you feel a shamed,

the (D)un i form don’t make you brave.

(G)All I can do is love you to piec es, (G)give you a shoul der to cry when you need it.

When the day is long and the night is com (D)ing down on you,

(C)all I can do,

(Em)all I can do,

(D)all I can do.

When you for get your a name,

the pleas ure can’t dis ven guise your pain,

and you don’t feel the same,

I (D)won’t for get the love you made.

(G)All I can do is love you to piec es, (G)give you a shoul der to cry when you need it.

When the day is long and the night is com (D)ing down on you,

(C)all I can do,

(Em)all I can do,

(D)all I can do.

(D)all I can do.

What a love ly day to (G)shape your dreams

and you don’t e ven have to (Dsus)sleep.

You can make it what you (G)want to be.

You can (Eb)fly a way, you can (Gm)change your name, have a (Bbm6)hap py face.

It can be so real.

(G)Oh,

(G)all I can do,

(C)all I can do,

(G)all I can do, it’s all that I can (C)do.
