Heaven Help Me by Rob Thomas
Heaven Help Me
Capo 1
Intro: C, Em, C, Em, D
C
In the evening when the stars shine down
Em
All the bridge and tunnel girls come out
C
We can dance until the walls fall down
Em D
Cause tonight we own this town
C
But in the morning when the sun's on fire
Em
I'm burning through you like a razor wire
Am C
When we see ourselves in passing windows
Em D
We feel like hell, everyone knows
C
You can't go back, heaven help me
Em
We've gone too far, when we can't be
C
The ones we want
Em D
This is who we are, who we are
C
A shot of neon in a window pane
Em
A shot of whiskey and we end again
C
You're moving further but you just can't win
Em D
And that's the way it's always been
C
You don't wanna let your life go by
Em
So you give until the well runs dry
Am C
But when you lose your faith it never comes back
Em D
And time don't wait, now you know that
C
You can't go back, heaven help me
Em
We've gone too far, when we can't be
C
The ones we want
Em D
This is who we are, who we are
C
I'm sorry but you can't go back, heaven help me
Em
We know too much, please believe me
C
Believe yourself
Em D
This is who you are, who you are
Am C
You try to get your head around it but it's never enough
Em D
You give yourself a little something but it's not what you need
C
And all that worry, all for nothing
Em
Where you've been and where you're going
C
And even if you changed it somehow
Em D
Every step would lead to right now
C
You can't go back, heaven help me
Em
We've gone too far, when we can't be
C
The ones we want
Em D
This is who we are, who we are
C
I could tell you that you can't go back, heaven help me
Em
We know too much, please believe me
C
Believe yourself
Em D
This is who you are, who you are
C
Oh, you can't go back, heaven help me
Em
We've gone too far E
C
We can't go back
Em D
This is who are, who we are
C
Oh, you can't go back, heaven help me
Em
We've gone too far
C
We can't go back
Em D
C, Em, C, Em, D (till fade)
