[Intro]
Gmaj7 A6 x4
[Verse 1]
Em7 Am7
It's no good anymore when your hands are tied
Em7 Am7
Cause your friends found you out when you broke down and cried
Em7 Am7
And the bright colored balls that you held inside
Bm7 Am7
Weren't the answer, no, no, no
Cm7
Not the answer
[Instrumental]
Bm7 Em7 x2
[Verse 2]
Em7 Am7
It's no good anymore when you know all the rules
Em7 Am7
Cause your friends pushed you out and they all look like fools
Em7 Am7
And the stories that you sang from the inside room
Bm7 Am7
Weren't the answer, no, no, no
Cm7
Not the answer
[Chorus]
Am7 Cmaj7 Dm
I'd like to help you but you're past that
Am7 Cmaj7 Dm
I'd like to help you but it's too late
Am7 Cmaj7 Dm Fmaj7 F#m7 Fmaj7
I'd like to look around the corner just to find what I could see
[Instrumental/Solo]
Em7 Am7 x6
[Verse 3]
Em7 Am7
It's no good anymore to abide by the rules
Em7 Am7
Cause you're graduating soon from the loser's school
Em7 Am7
And the country tavern lady in the house on the hill
Bm7 Am7
Can't be the answer, no, no, no
Cm7
She's not the answer
[Chorus]
Am7 Cmaj7 Dm
I'd like to help you but you're past that
Am7 Cmaj7 Dm
I'd like to help you but it's too late
Am7 Cmaj7 Dm Fmaj7 F#m7 Fmaj7
I'd like to look around the corner just to find what I could see
[Chorus]
Am7 Cmaj7 Dm
I'd like to help you but you're past that
Am7 Cmaj7 Dm
I'd like to help you but it's too late
Am7 Cmaj7 Dm Fmaj7 F#m7 Fmaj7
I'd like to look around the corner just to find what I could see
[Outro]
Em7 Am7
Like to help you but you're too far gone
Em7 Am7
I'd like to help you out but it's too late now
Em7 Am7
Like to help you now but you're too far gone
Em7
Too late...
Am7
Too late...
