[Intro]
C

[Verse 1]
C                                Em
God knows what is hiding in that weak and drunken heart
           D/F#
I guess he kissed the girls and made them cry
      C
Those hard-faced queens of misadventure
                                  Em
God knows what is hiding in those weak and sunken eyes
        D/F#                          C
A fiery throng of muted angels giving love and getting nothing back, oh

[Chorus]
C               Em
People help the people
            D/F#                                 C
And if your homesick, give me your hand and I'll hold it
C               Em
People help the people
              D/F#
Nothing gonna drag you down
       Am   Bm11  C
Oh and if I had a brain
       Am   Bm11  C
Oh and if I had a brain
       Am        Bm11      C                     Am               B7           C
I'd be cold as a stone and rich as the fool that turned all those good hearts away

[Verse 2]
C/G                              Em
God knows what is hiding in that world of little consequence
  D/F#                             C/G
Behind the tears inside the lies a thousand slowly dying sunsets
                                  Em
God knows what is hiding in those weak and drunken hearts
            D/F#                            C/G
I guess the loneliness came knocking no one needs to be alone, oh save me

[Chorus]
C/G             Em
People help the people
            D/F#                                 C/G
And if your homesick, give me your hand and I'll hold it
C/G             Em
People help the people
              D/F#
Nothing gonna drag you down
       Am   Bm11  C
Oh and if I had a brain
       Am   Bm11  C
Oh and if I had a brain
       Am        Bm11      C                     Am               B7           C
I'd be cold as a stone and rich as the fool that turned all those good hearts away

And if your homesick, give me your hand and I'll hold it
C/G             Em
People help the people
              D/F#
Nothing gonna drag you down

Oh and if I had a brain
       Am   Bm11  C
