C Emadd9
Cadd2 G->C
Emadd9 G->C
[Verse]
C Em
God knows what is hiding in that weak and drunken heart
D Dadd4 D
I guess you kissed the girls and made them cry
C Cadd4 C
those Hardfaced Queens of misadventure
C Em
God knows what is hiding in those weak and sunken eyes
D Dadd4 D
a Fiery throng of muted angels
C Cadd4 C
Giving love and getting nothing back
[Chorus]
C Em
People help the people
D
And if your homesick,
C
give me your hand and i'll hold it
C Em
People help the people
D
And nothing will drag you down
Am G C
Oh and if I had a brain,
Am G C
Oh and if I had a brain
Am G Cmaj7 Am7
I'd be cold as a stone and rich as the fool
Am B7 C C
That turned all those good hearts away
[Verse]
C Em
God knows what is hiding, in that world of little consequence
D Dadd4 D
Behind the tears, inside the lies
C Cadd4 C
A thousand slowly dying sunsets
C Em
God knows what is hiding in those weak and drunken hearts
D Dadd4 D
I guess the loneliness came knocking
C Cadd4 C
No one needs to be alone, oh save me
[Chorus]
C Em
People help the people
D
And if your homesick,
C
give me your hand and i'll hold it
C Em
People help the people
D
And nothing will drag you down
Am G C
Oh and if I had a brain,
Am G C
Oh and if I had a brain
Am G Cmaj7 Am7
I'd be cold as a stone and rich as the fool
Am B7 C C
That turned all those good hearts away
[Instrumental]
C Em Cadd4 C
C Em Cadd4 C
C Em Abadd4 C
na naaa na na naaa
[Chorus]
C Em
People help the people
D
And if your homesick,
C
give me your hand and i'll hold it
C Em
People help the people
D
And nothing will drag you down
Am G C
Oh and if I had a brain,
Am G C
Oh and if I had a brain
Am G Cmaj7 Am7
i'd be cold as a stone and rich as the fool
Am B7 C G->C
That turned, all those good hearts away
