Alkaline Trio - Help me
(Most of this can just be played as power chords and still sound fine.)
(Intro)
B B G#m F# x3
E F#
(Verse 1)
B G#m
Here you find me in between
F#
Heaven and Hell my dear
B G#m
Where nothing's what it seems
F#
It's just as well I fear
B G#m
I'm giving you the creeps
F# E F#
And a farewell kiss to go into the unknown
B G#m
Saw you standing there
F#
Outside the music hall
B G#m
You come out for some air
F#
Uncertain curtain call
B G#m
And everyone just stared
F# E
When you took the stage that night
F#
Something's not right
(Pre-Chorus)
G#m E
You're up there took the stairs
B C#m
To the stars all alone
G#m E
You left all the lights burning
B C#m
But nobody'a home
G#m E B C#m E F#
I believe they deceived your tuneful heart too long
Now they sing along
(Chorus)
B E
Help me, Help me won't you?
G#m F#
Sing me, sing me one last song?
B C#m
Help me, Help me, somebody help me
G#m F# E Em~~~
Save me from myself

Where nothing's what it seems

And a farewell to arms, and legs, and heads, and hearts
(Pre-Chorus)

You're up there took the stairs
B C#m
To the stars all alone
G#m E
You left all the lights burning

But nobody'a home

I believe they deceived your tuneful heart too long
Now they sing along
