can anyone learn to play the piano?

v been thinking about learning the piano just as a hobby really but i need some advice. i know it takes a hell of a lot of practice but i do have the time on my hands for it. ive noticed however that i cant do 2 different things with my hands. so if i had to play cords at the same time as the melody i would just find it impossible. is there a cure for this or are some people just not meant to play?
thanks
p.s. any additional information on learning will be much appreciated.
