He can

He will

CHORUS 2:
When he
[C#m] comes to town and you
[A] see his face
And you
[C#m] think you might like to
[F#] take his place
[Amaj7] Something keeps him drifting
[G#m7] miles and miles away
[F#m7] Searching for the songs to
[B open] play
BRIDGE 1:
You
[F#m] listen to the
[F#m7M] music
And you
[F#m7] like to sing a-
[B]-long
You
[E] want to get the
[B] meaning out
Of
[C#m] each and every
[C#] song
And you
[F#m] find yourself a
[F#m7M] message
And some
[F#m7] words to call your
[B] own
And take them
[C#] home
[A]

CHORUS 3:
He can
[C#m] make you love he can
[A] get you high
He will
[C#m] bring you down and he'll
[F#] make you cry
[Amaj7] Something keeps him moving, but
[G#m7] no one seems to know
[F#m7] What it is that makes him
[B open] go
