Intro:
Amaj7 F#m7, Bm9 E9
Amaj7 F#m7, Bm9 E7b9
Verse 1:
Amaj7 Dmaj7
When I walk in your shoes,
C#m7 E9
I understand a man confused.
Amaj7
There must have been,
Dmaj7
But I don't care,
C#m7
I feel the way,
E9
Your soul does there.
Amaj7 Dmaj7
Darling, they empathise,
C#m7
Looking through,
E9
Your bloodshot eyes.
Amaj7
And I know you;
Dmaj7
You're so frustrated,
C#m7
Above we all become,
F#7b9
What we once hated.
Bridge 1:
Bm7 E7
Be-sides, nobody,
Bm7 E7
Can be that wise.
Chorus 1:
Amaj7 F#m7
I can't help you,
Bm9
If you won't,
E9 Amaj7 F#m7 Bm9 E9
Help your-self.
Amaj7 F#m7
I can't help you,
Bm9
If you won't,
E9 Amaj7 F#m7 Bm9 E9
Help your-self.
Amaj7 F#m7
You can only get,
Bm9 E9
So much from,
Amaj7 F#m7 Bm9 E9
Someone else.
Amaj7 F#m7
I can't help you,
Bm9
If you won't,
E9 Amaj7 F#m7 Bm9 E7b9
Help your-self.
Verse 2:
Amaj7
You've got a degree,
Dmaj7
A-in philosophy,
C#m7
So you think,
E9
You're clever-er than me.
Amaj7
But I'm not just,
Dmaj7
Some drama queen,
C#m7
'Cos it's where you're at,
E9
Not where you've been.

Amaj7
So what do you,
Dmaj7
Ex-pect from me,
C#m7
To hold your head,
E9
A-bove the sea?
Amaj7
And carry you,
Dmaj7
Even though you're bigger,
C#m7
'Cos don't you know,
F#7b9
You crush my tiny figure?
Bridge 2:
Bm7
And anyway,
E7
We're still so young,
Bm7 E7
And this isn't yesterday.
Chorus 2:
Amaj7 F#m7
I can't help you,
Bm9
If you won't,
E9 Amaj7 F#m7 Bm9 E9
Help your-self.
Amaj7 F#m7
I can't help you,
Bm9
If you won't,
E9 Amaj7 F#m7 Bm9 E9
Help your-self.
Amaj7 F#m7
You can only get,
Bm9 E9
So much from,
Amaj7 F#m7 Bm9 E9
Someone else.
Amaj7 F#m7
I can't help you,
Bm9
If you won't,
E9 Amaj7 F#m7 Bm9 E7b9
Help your-self.
Break:
Dmaj7
You might be twenty five,
Cdim
But in my mind,
Amaj7 E/G#
I see you as sixteen years old,
F#7
Most of the time.
Dmaj7
And I'm just a child,
Cdim
And you're full grown,
Bm7
And you are like nothing,
E9
I've ever known.
