Tonality
FAm
God knows what is hiding in those weak
and drunken heart,
G
Guess you kissed the girls and made them cry,
F
Those hard-faced Queens of misadventure.
Am
God knows what is hiding in those weak
and sunken eyes,
G
A fiery throng of muted angels,
F
Giving love and getting nothing back.
Chorus:
FAm
Oh, people, help the people,
GF
And if you’re homesick,
give me your hand and I’ll hold it.
FAm
People, help the people,
G
Nothing will drag you down.
GDmCFDmCF
Oh, and if I had a brain, oh, and if I had a brain,
DmCF
I’d be cold as a stone and rich as the fool
DmEF
That turned all those good hearts away.
God knows what is hiding in this world
of little consequence,
Behind the tears, inside the lies,
A thousand slowly dying sunsets.
God knows what is hiding in those weak
and drunken hearts,
Guess the loneliness came knocking,
No-one needs to be alone, oh, save me.
Chorus:
Oh, people, help the people,
And if you’re homesick,
give me your hand and I’ll hold it.
People, help the people,
Nothing will drag you down.
Oh, and if I had a brain, oh, and if I had a brain,
I’d be cold as a stone and rich as the fool
That turned all those good hearts away.
People, help the people,
And if you’re homesick,
give me your hand and I’ll hold it.
People, help the people,
Nothing will drag you down.
Oh, and if I had a brain, oh, and if I had a brain,
I’d be cold as a stone and rich as the fool
That turned all those good hearts away.
