[Verse]
F Am
God knows what is hiding in those weak and drunken hearts
G Gsus4 G
I guess he kissed the girls and made them cry
F
those hardfaced queens of misadventure
F Am
God knows what is hiding in those weak and sunken eyes
G Gsus4 G
a fiery throng of muted angels
F
Giving love but getting nothing back
[Chorus]
F Am
People help the people
G
And if you're homesick
F
Give me your hand and I'll hold it
F Am
People help the people
G
And nothing will drag you down
Dm C F
Oh and if I had a brain,
Dm C F
Oh and if I had a brain
Dm C F
I'd be cold as a stone and rich as the fool
Dm E7 F F
That turned, all those good hearts away
[Verse]
F Am
God knows what is hiding, in this world of little consequence
G Gsus4 G
Behind the tears, inside the lies
F F
A thousand slowly dying sunsets
F Am
God knows what is hiding in those weak and drunken hearts
G Gsus4 G
I guess the loneliness came knocking
F F
No one needs to be alone, oh save me
[Chorus]
F Am
People help the people
G
And if you're homesick
F
Give me your hand and I'll hold it
F Am
People help the people
G
And nothing will drag you down
Dm C F
Oh and if I had a brain,
Dm C F
Oh and if I had a brain
Dm C F
I'd be cold as a stone and rich as the fool
Dm E7 F F
That turned, all those good hearts away
