My dad chased monsters from the dark and checked underneath my bed,
A/Ab F#m D E A
And he could lift me with one arm way up over top his head.
A(add9) D A
He could loosen rusty bolts with a quick turn of his wrench,
A/Ab F#m D E D
He pulled splinters from his hand and never even flinched.
F#m F#m(add9)
In 13 years I'd never seen him cry,
Bm A/Db D E
But the day that grandpa died, I realized.
(Chorus:)
A
Unsinkable ships sink,
E
Unbreakable walls break,
F#m F#m7
Sometimes the things you think would never happen
D E
Happen just like that.
A
Unbendable steel bends,
E F+ D
If the fury of the wind is unstoppable.
Bm A/Db D
I've learned to never underestimate
E A
The impossible.
A A(add9) D A
Then there was my junior year, Billy had a brand new car.
A/Ab F#m D E A
It was late the road was wet, I guess the curve was just too sharp.
A(add9) D A
I walked away without a scratch, they brought the helicopter in,
A/Ab F#m D E D
Billy couldn't feel his legs, they said he'd never walk again.
F#m F#m(add9)
But Billy said he would and his mom and daddy prayed,
Bm A/Db D E
And the day we graduated, he stood up to say:
(Chorus)
A A(add9) F#m D E
INSTRUMENTAL
(Bridge)
D
So don't tell me that its over,
F#m F#m(add9)
Don't give up on you and me.
Bm A/Db
'Cause there's no such thing as hopeless,
D E
If you believe...
(Chorus)
