Verse
F                               Am
God knows what is hiding in those weak and drunken hearts

            G         Gsus4   G
I guess he kissed the girls and made them cry

      F
those hardfaced queens of misadventure

F                                Am
God knows what is hiding in those weak and sunken eyes

  G             Gsus4   G
a fiery throng of muted angels

       F
Giving love and getting nothing back
Chorus
F              Am
People help the people

            G
And if your homesick,

                           F
give me your hand and i'll hold it

F              Am
People help the people

                 G
And nothing will drag you down

       Dm  C   F
Oh and if I had a brain,

       Dm  C   F
Oh and if I had a brain

       Dm       C       F
I'd be cold as a stone and rich as the fool

     Dm               E           F         F
That turned, all those good hearts away
Verse - 2 -
F                                Am
God knows what is hiding, in the world of little consequence

            G      Gsus4   G
Behind the tears, inside the lies

  F               F
A thousand slowly dying sunsets

F                                Am
God knows what is hiding in those weak and drunken hearts

  G              Gsus4   G
I guess the loneliness came knocking

       F                   F
No one needs to be alone, oh save me
Chorus
F              Am
People help the people

            G
And if your homesick,

                           F
give me your hand and I'll hold it

F              Am
People help the people

                 G
And nothing will drag you down

       Dm  C   F
Oh and if I had a brain,

       Dm  C   F
Oh and if I had a brain

       Dm       C        F
I'd be cold as a stone and rich as the fool

     Dm               E           F         F
That turned, all those good hearts away
