I CAN'T REACH YOU- The Who

          C         Csus  C
I'm a million ages past you
     C                Csus   C
A million years behind you too
    Bb              G
A thousand miles up in the air
    Bb                  G7
A trillion times I've seen you there
C                      Csus   C
Your hair is golden, mine is grey
C                     Csus      C
You walk on grass, it turns to hay
Bb                           G
Your blood is blue and your eyes are red
Bb                         G
My body strains, but the nerves are dead

CHORUS #1:
           C               Bb
I can't reach you I've strained my eyes
           C             Bb
I can't reach you I've split my sides
          C      G/B      Am7 Em
I can't reach, tryin' to get on you
Fmaj9  C       Gsus Dm7 C
See, feel or hear from you

The distances grow greater now
You drink champagne and past me plow
You fly your plane right over my head
You're still alive and I'm nearly dead

CHORUS #2:
          C              Bb
I can't reach you with arms outstretched
          C            Bb
I can't reach you I crane my neck
          C      G/B      Am7 Em
I can't reach, tryin' to get on you
 Fmaj7  C     Gsus Dm7  C
See, feel or hear from you

BRIDGE:
G C G Am                                 G         C         G
      Once I caught a glimpse of your unguarded, untouched heart
      Am                             G        C   G
Our fingertips touched and then my mind tore us apart

REPEAT CHORUS #2      D G A  D G A

CHORUS #3:
          D                C
I can't reach you, I've strained my eyes
           D                  C
I can't reach you they're hypnotized
           D    A        Bm7 F#m
I can't reach tryin' to get on you
Gmaj9  D     Asus4 Em7  D
See, feel or hear from you
