[Strophe]
Amaj7        Dmaj7            C#m7         E9 
 When I walk in your shoes, I understand a man confused. 
      Amaj7               Dmaj7 
There must have been, but I don't care, 
  C#m7              E9 
I feel the way your soul does there.
[Strophe]
Amaj7          Dmaj7      C#m7                 E9 
 Darling, they empathise, looking through your bloodshot eyes. 
Amaj7                   Dmaj7 
 And I know you; you're so frustrated, 
C#m7                     F#7b9 
  But we all become what we once hated.
[Pont]
  Bm7    E7          Bm7          E7 
Besides, nobody, can be that wise.
[Refrain]
Amaj7         F#m7  Bm9          E9       Amaj7  F#m7  Bm9  E9 
 I can't help you,  if you won't help yourself. 
Amaj7         F#m7  Bm9          E9       Amaj7  F#m7  Bm9  E9 
 I can't help you,  if you won't help yourself. 
Amaj7         F#m7 Bm9     E9           Amaj7  F#m7  Bm9  E9 
 You can only get, so much from someone else. 
Amaj7         F#m7  Bm9          E9       Amaj7  F#m7  Bm9  E9 
 I can't help you,  if you won't help yourself.
[Strophe]
Amaj7                   Dmaj7 
 You've got a degree, a-in philosophy, 
C#m7                       E9 
 So you think you're cleverer than me. 
    Amaj7             Dmaj7 
But I'm not just some drama queen, 
          C#m7                 E9 
'Cos it's where you're at; not where you've been.
[Strophe]
   Amaj7         Dmaj7            C#m7            E9 
So what do you expect from me, to hold your head above the sea? 
    Amaj7          Dmaj7 
And carry you even though you're bigger, 
     C#m7                        F#7b9 
'Cos don't you know you crush my tiny figure?
[Pont]
    Bm7           E7                  Bm7        E7 
And anyway, we're still so young, and this isn't yesterday.
[Refrain]
Amaj7         F#m7  Bm9          E9       Amaj7  F#m7  Bm9  E9 
 I can't help you,  if you won't help yourself. 
Amaj7         F#m7  Bm9          E9       Amaj7  F#m7  Bm9  E9 
 I can't help you,  if you won't help yourself. 
Amaj7         F#m7 Bm9     E9           Amaj7  F#m7  Bm9  E9 
 You can only get, so much from someone else. 
Amaj7         F#m7  Bm9          E9       Amaj7  F#m7  Bm9  E9 
 I can't help you,  if you won't help yourself.
[Pont]
Dmaj7                          Cdim 
 You might be twenty five, but in my mind, 
Amaj7         E/G#              F#7 
 I see you as sixteen years old most the time. 
 
 
Dmaj7                  Cdim 
 And I'm just a child, and you're full grown, 
    Bm7                       E9 
And you are like nothing I've ever known
