      [Chorus]

Bm     D  C#m  F#   Bm     D  C#m  F#
Helpless, helpless, helpless, helpless

[Verse 1]
D                        C#m               F#      Bm
I thought about it but I couldn't think of what to say
      Em               A  D    G  A
But I thought about it anyway, yeah
D                            C#m  F# Bm
I tried to tell you what you mean to me
       Em             A  D    G A
But it didn't come so easily, no

[Bridge]
C#m
I never reckoned
    C
For more than a second
     B                     A#
Just how it would be on my own

[Chorus]
       Bm    D           C#m F#
I'd be helpless, without you
       Bm    D           C#m F#
I'd be helpless, without you

[Bridge 2]
B             D#m              E
The dawn that calls beyond the night
              Em
Tells its old story
G            Bm            C
The shadows fade into the light
             D#
In all it's glory

[Chorus 2]
E
Helpless
E
Helpless, baby, I'm a helpless
E
Helpless, baby
       Bm
I'm a helpless

[Verse 2]
D                     C#m   F#     Bm
If I could put a good shine on the past
       Em                   A       D      G  A
Do you think that we could make it last, oh yeah
D        C#m      F#        Bm
Seems to mind the time goes fast
  Em            A       D
I wonder if the vote is cast

[Bridge]
C#m
Now that you mention it
C
Got my attention
  B                      Bb
I quite clearly blew me away

[Chorus]
       Bm    D           C#m  F#
I'd be helpless, without you
       Bm    D            C#m F#
I'd be helpless, without you

[Bridge]
    B             D#m              E
The dawn that calls beyond the night
              Em
Tells its old story
 G           Bm            C
The shadows fade into the light
            D#
In all it's glory

[Chorus 2]
E
Helpless
E
Helpless, baby, I'm a helpless
E
Helpless, baby

[Chorus]
      Bm      D          C#m F#
I'm a helpless, without    you
       Bm      D          C#m F#
I'd be helpless, without    you
