Helpless

E
Why can't you see I'm just no good at these things?
A                                      B
I want to love you like the man I'm supposed to be
E
But you know me these conversations get boring
    A                                B        Cm
The fake, pathetic workings like consistency

C#m
You turn and ask me
A                     E           B     Cm
Why don't you hold me baby, oh oh baby
C#m                 A
My cool is melting away and I'm making
E                 N.C.
A mess, you can't see me like this

E        G#m
Helpless, helpless
C#m                         B
What makes my wounded heart feel like this?
E             G#m      C#m              B
Helpless, I'm helpless when it comes to you

E
Leave me alone, I know I'm not making sense
           A                          B
But I know I can't let you come any closer
E
It's my security, it's my self-defense
          A                        B    Cm
I keep on doing all this over and over

C#m
You turn and ask me
A                   E           B     Cm
Just get to know me baby, oh oh baby
C#m                A                        E
I turn away and pretend that I'm doing just fine
           B
But you're inside my mind and I'm

E        G#m
Helpless, helpless
C#m                         B
What makes my wounded heart feel like this?
E             G#m      C#m              B
Helpless, I'm helpless when it comes to you

G#m               A
I'm caught in the way we talk
    E           B
I'm never good enough
G#m                 A                E                      B
Your love's like a wrecking ball and I don't want to break apart
Break apart, oh oh oh ohhh

E        G#m
Helpless, helpless
C#m                          B              B B B
What makes my wounded heart feel like this?
E             G#m      C#m              B
Helpless, I'm helpless when it comes to you
E        G#m
Helpless, helpless
C#m                         B
What makes my wounded heart feel like this?
E             G#m      C#m              B
Helpless, I'm helpless when it comes to you
B                        E
When it comes to you...
