...HELP YOURSELF... by Amy Winehouse


-------------------.................


from 'Frank' (2004)

Intro:

Amaj7 F#m7, Bm9 E9
Amaj7 F#m7, Bm9 E7b9

Verse 1:

[Amaj7] When I walk [Dmaj7]in your shoes,
I [C#m7]understand a [E9]man confused.
There [Amaj7]must have been,
But [Dmaj7]I don't care,
I [C#m7]feel the way,
Your [E9]soul does there.

[Amaj7] Darling, they [Dmaj7]empathise,
[C#m7] Looking through,
Your [E9]bloodshot eyes.
[Amaj7] And I know you;
You're [Dmaj7]so frustrated,
[C#m7] Above we all become,
What [F#7b9]we once hated.

Bridge 1:

Be-[Bm7]sides, [E7]nobody,
Can [Bm7]be that wise.[E7]

Chorus 1:

[Amaj7] I can't help [F#m7]you,
[Bm9] If you won't,
[E9] Help your-[Amaj7]self.[F#m7][Bm9][E9]

[Amaj7] I can't help [F#m7]you,
[Bm9] If you won't,
[E9] Help your-[Amaj7]self.[F#m7][Bm9][E9]

[Amaj7] You can only [F#m7]get,
[Bm9] So much [E9]from,
Someone [Amaj7]else.[F#m7][Bm9][E9]

[Amaj7] I can't help [F#m7]you,
[Bm9] If you won't,
[E9] Help your-[Amaj7]self.[F#m7][Bm9][E7b9]

Verse 2:

[Amaj7] You've got a degree,
A-[Dmaj7]in philosophy,
[C#m7] So you think,
You're clever-[E9]er than me.
But [Amaj7]I'm not just,
Some [Dmaj7]drama queen,
'Cos it's [C#m7]where you're at,
Not [E9]where you've been.

So [Amaj7]what do you,
Ex-[Dmaj7]pect from me,
To [C#m7]hold your head,
A-[E9]bove the sea?
And [Amaj7]carry you,
Even [Dmaj7]though you're bigger,
'Cos [C#m7]don't you know,
You crush my [F#7b9]tiny figure?

Bridge 2:

And [Bm7]anyway,
We're [E7]still so young,
And [Bm7]this isn't [E7]yesterday.

Chorus 2:

[Amaj7] I can't help [F#m7]you,
[Bm9] If you won't,
[E9] Help your-[Amaj7]self.[F#m7][Bm9][E9]

[Amaj7] I can't help [F#m7]you,
[Bm9] If you won't,
[E9] Help your-[Amaj7]self.[F#m7][Bm9][E9]

[Amaj7] You can only [F#m7]get,
[Bm9] So much [E9]from,
Someone [Amaj7]else.[F#m7][Bm9][E9]

[Amaj7] I can't help [F#m7]you,
[Bm9] If you won't,
[E9] Help your-[Amaj7]self.[F#m7][Bm9][E7b9]

Break:

[Dmaj7] You might be twenty five,
But [Cdim]in my mind,
[Amaj7] I see you as [E/G#]sixteen years old,
[F#7] Most of the time.

[Dmaj7] And I'm just a child,
[Cdim] And you're full grown,
And [Bm7]you are like nothing,
I've [E9]ever known.

Outro:

Amaj7 F#m7, Bm9 E9
Amaj7 F#m7, Bm9 E7b9
