[Verse 1]
G
Tonight they're shutting down the borders
Cadd9 G
And they've boarded up the schools
Em D
Small towns are rolling up their sidewalks,
G
One last paycheck coming through
G
I know you're feeling kinda nervous
Cadd9 G
We're all a little bit confused
Em D
Nothin's the same, this ain't a game
G
We got to make it through
[Instrumental]
|G |Cadd9 G |
[Verse 2]
G
As we wait outside the window
Cadd9 G
Older loved ones stay inside
Em D
Moms and babies blowing kisses
G
Maybe saving someone's life
G
They had to cancel graduation
Cadd9 G
It ain't fair to scrap the prom
Em D
Our kids sit home in isolation
G
Evening news is always on
[Chorus]
G Cadd9 G
When you can't do what you do, you do what you can
Em D G
This ain't my prayer, it's just a thought I'm wanting to send
G Cadd9 G
Round here we bend but don't break, down here we all understand
Em D G
When you can't do what you do, you do what you can
[Instrumental]
|G |Cadd9 G |
[Verse 3]
G Cadd9 G
The chicken farm from Akansas bought workers P.P.E
Em D G
Not before 500 more had succumbed to this disease
Cadd9 G
Honest men and honest women, working for an honest wage
Em D

I got a hundred point 1 fever
G
And we still got bills to pay
[Chorus]
G Cadd9 G
When you can't do what you do, you do what you can
Em D G
This ain't my prayer, it's just a thought I'm wanting to send
G Cadd9 G
Round here we bend but don't break, down here we all understand
Em D G
When you can't do what you do, you do what you can
[Bridge]
C Em D
They built a hospital on East Meadow in Central Park last night
C G D
Doctors, nurses, truckers, grocery store clerks manning the front line
Am7
I saw Red Cross on the Hudson
C/B
They turned off the Broadway lights
C
Another ambulance screams by
D
There by the grace of God go I
[Verse]
G
Altough I'll keep my social distance
Cadd9 G
What this world needs is a hug
Em D
Until we find the vaccination
G
There's no substitute for love
G
So love yourself and love your family
Cadd9 G
Love your neighbor and your friend
Em D
Ain't it time we love the stranger
G
It's just a friend you ain't met yet
[Chorus]
G Cadd9 G
When you can't do what you do, you do what you can
Em D G
This ain't my prayer, it's just a thought I'm wanting to send
G Cadd9 G
Round here we bend but don't break, down here we all understand
Em D G
When you can't do what you do, you do what you can
Em D G
When you can't do what you do, you do what you can
