Intro:

  ,   E7b9

Verse 1:

        
 When I walk in your shoes,
           
I understand a man confused.
                     
There must have been, but I don't care,
                
I feel the way your soul does there.

          
 Darling, they empathise,
                  
 Looking through your bloodshot eyes.
                   
 And I know you; you're so frustrated,
                        F#7b9
 Besides we all become what we once hated.

Bridge 1:

                            
Be-sides, nobody, can be that wise.

Chorus 1:

         
 I can't help you,
                         
 If you won't help your-self.

         
 I can't help you,
                         
 If you won't help your-self.

         
 You can only get,
                       
 So much from someone else.

         
 I can't help you,
                         
 If you won't help your-self.

Verse 2:

                   
 You've got a degree, a-in philosophy,
                        
 So you think you're clever-er than me.
                 
But I'm not just some drama queen,
                           
'Cos it's where you're at; not where you've been.

             
So what do you ex-pect from me,
                
To hold your head a-bove the sea?
              
And carry you even though you're bigger,
                             F#7b9
'Cos don't you know you crush my tiny figure?

Bridge 2:

               
And anyway, we're still so young,
            
And this isn't yesterday.

Chorus 2:

         
 I can't help you,
                         
 If you won't help your-self.

         
 I can't help you,
                         
 If you won't help your-self.

         
 You can only get,
                       
 So much from someone else.

         
 I can't help you,
                         
 If you won't help your-self.

Break:

                          
 You might be twenty five, but in my mind,
                       
 I see you as sixteen years old most the time.

                  
 And I'm just a child, and you're full grown,
                           
And you are like nothing I've ever known.
