Helplessness Blues

E
I was raised up believing
      A
I was somehow unique
       B
Like a snowflake distinct among 
snowflakes
   A                       E
Unique in each way you can see

[Verse 2]
E
And now after some thinking
    A
I'd say I'd rather be
  B
A functioning cog in some great 
machinery
 A                       E
Serving something beyond me

[Chorus]
E                                 
But I don't, I don't know what 
       A
that will be
         E                       A
I'll get back to you someday soon 
         E
you will see

[Verse 3]
E
What's my name, what's my station
        A
Oh just tell me what I should do
        B
I don't need to be kind to the 
armies of night
           A                    E
That would do such injustice to you

[Verse 4]
E
Or bow down and be grateful
         A
And say "Sure take all that you see"
Continúa después del anuncio
       B
To the men who move only in 
dimly-lit halls
       A                    E
And determine my future for me

[Chorus]
E                              
And I don't, I don't know who to 
       A
believe
         E                     A  
I'll get back to you someday soon 
         E
you will see

[Verse 6]
E
If I know only one thing
          A
It's that every thing that I see
       B
Of the world outside is so 
inconceivable
A                  E
Often I barely can speak

Yeah I'm tongue tied and dizzy
      A
And I can't keep it to myself
      B
What good is it to sing helplessness
 blues?
           A                 E
Why should I wait for anyone else?

[Chorus]
E                                 
And I know, I know you will keep 
         A
me on the shelf
          E                    A  
I'll come back to you someday soon
     E
 myself

[Verse]
E           A
If I had an orchard
    E             A    (Aadd9)
I'd work till I'm raw
A6          E
If i had an orchard
                  A      Asus4   A
I'd work till I'm sore

    E              A
And you would wait tables
    E            A    Asus4   A
And soon run the store

E                 A
Gold hair in the sunlight
   E            A    (Aadd9)
My light in the dawn
A6          E
If I had an orchard
                  A    Asus4    A
I'd work till I'm sore

   E       A
If I had an orchard
   E              A    Asus4   A
I'd work till I'm sore

Harmony Verse - follow same chord 
pattern as before...

   E         A
Someday I'll be
        E               A
Like the man on the screen
