Intro: verse 1: And the sound I remember when I was young Was an old man talking 'bout the things he'd done And the battles he fought and the war he won Long time__ ago verse 2: Well, he been looking back now at that smiling space Just thinking about them good old days You can take his past, you can take his place You can't kill what an old man knows But we can make it We can make it We can make it if we try verse 3: We'll try to imagine or understand The power that lies in these two hands Oh, the passion that burns in the heart of a man Who holds no fear verse 4: And the fools who agree it's a merry-go-round Just give us the tools and we'll turn it 'round We can lean up straight from a hole in the ground For a thousand years We can make it We can make it Ain't no reason why We can make it We can make it We can make it if we try Bridge: And we knew how to make it (when the chips were down) Knew how to take it (when the chips were down) Knew how to turn it all around ( Ye-e-ss ) Instrumental:
