The Impossible

G                               C                           G
My dad chased monsters from the dark, checked underneath my bed
                          C                       G
He could lift me with one arm way up over top his head
                      C                              G
He could loosen rusty bolts with a quick turn of his wrench
                             C                   Em
He pulled splinters from his hand and never even flinch
                      C
In thirteen years I’d never seen him cry
        Am               C        D
But the day that grandpa died I realized…

(chorus)

           G                       D
Unsinkable ships sink, unbreakable walls break
              Em
Sometimes the things you think could never happen
C                D
Happen just like that
           G                  D                      Em
Unbendable steel bends if the furry of the wind is unstoppable
     C                  Am        D        G
I’ve learned to never underestimate, the impossible

G                        C                           G
Then there was my junior year, Billy had a brand new car
                         C                                 G
It was late the road was wet I guess the curve was just to sharp
                        C                                   G
I walked away without a scratch they brought the helicopter in
                        C                           Em
Billy couldn’t feel his legs, said he’d never walk again
                                C
But Billy said he would and his mom and daddy prayed
        Am          C             D
And the day we graduated he stood up to say…

(repeat chorus)

(bridge)
         Am                                 D
So don’t tell me that it’s over, don’t give up on you and me
              Am               C           D
Cause there’s no such thing as hopeless if you believe…

(repeat chorus)
