We Can Make It
by
Johnny Tillotson, Brian Hyland, Tommy Roe
This is a song that I heard when I was a kid at the end of the 1998 Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer movie.
Super great song. I love how it isn't specifically associated with the Holidays, so you can listen to it
and play it anytime.
It took me a few hours to figure out the bridges. I'm only 90% sure they're correct though. By all means,
comment something better if you have it, and if I agree, I'll change it.

[Intro]
G G C x2
Even Gthough we have
Many hCills and mountains to clGimb,
And there's Gno easy road
And we haCven't very much tDime,
WCe've gotta stick togeDther
GWe can hold oDn forevEmer,
We can mCake it
We can mDake it if we tGry
Even tGhough the snow
Will come faCllin' down from the sGky
We can ovGercome any
TroCubles and towers too hDigh
No mCatter how the winds may bDlow
And tGhough it may be tDouch and Emgo
We can mCake it
We can mDake it if we tGry
There're tiA#mes when you're down
And you've gFiven up on you're dCreams,
We have to faA#ce the storm
Things are noFt a bad as they sCeem,
You gotta gGo to extreDmes!
Even tGhough it's dark
BClue skies are comin' your wGay,
And bGy tomorrow
It'll Cbe a sunnier dDay
As Clong as you're by my sDide
We'll sGurvive this stDormy riEmde,
We can Cmake it
We can mDake it if we tGry,
[Sax solo]

*NOTE*
To make it sound a bit more like the song; when playing the G at times, take your ring and pinky fingers on
and off to go with the strings. I play my G with four fingers (holding down the B string as well). It sounds
better for this song anyway.
