    THE IMPOSSIBLE   Joe Nichols

A                                D        E                    A
My dad chased monsters from the dark and checked underneath my bed
               A               D          E            A
And he could lift me with one arm way up over top his head
           A            D            E                  A
He could loosen rusty bolts with a quick turn of his wrench
             A                D        E             A
He pulled splinters from his hand and never even flinched
   F#m           C#m            D  
In 13 years I'd never seen him cry 
D                         A           E 
But the day that grandpa died I rea-lized

CHORUS
            A                      E
Unsinkable ships sink Unbreakable walls break
                D    
Sometimes the things you think would never happen
 Bm               E
Happen just like that
             A
Unbendable steel bends
        F#m         C#m        D
If the fury of the wind is unstoppable
        D                       F#m  E          A
I've learned to never underesti-mate    The im-possible


A                              D         E               A 
And then there was my junior year Billy had a brand new car
         A                D               E                  A 
It was late the road was wet I guess the curve was just too sharp
            A              D            E                    A
I walked a-way without a scratch they brought the helicopter in
        A                D              E            A          
Billy couldn't feel his legs said he'd never walk a-gain
          F#m                   C#m             D   
But Billy said he would and his mom and daddy prayed
         D            A        E
And the day we gradu-ated he stood up to say

To chorus

BRIDGE
         F#m               D              C#m
So don't tell me that its over Don't give up on you and me
         D                                   E
'Cause there's no such thing as hopeless If you believe

To chorus
