I Can’t Get Next to You Al Green

[Verse 1]
I ...(my my my my)
Oh, I can turn a gray sky blue
You see, I can make it rain when I want it to
Oh, I can build a castle from a single grain of sand, yeah
I, you see, can make a ship sail on dry land, yeah

[Pre-Chorus]
Unhappy am I with all the powers that I possess, yeah
Girl, you're the key to my happiness and I...

[Chorus]
(Can't get next to you, babe)
Ooh Lord
(I can't get next to you)
I've been trying a long time
(Can't get next to you, babe)
(Can't get next to you)
I don't know what to do

(Let me say)
I .. (my my my my my)
Oh, I, oh Lord

[Verse 2]
I can fly like the bird in the sky
Oh, I can buy anything that money can buy
Oh, I can turn a river into a raging fire
Oh, I, and I can live forever if I so desire, yeah
