Helpless Dancer

E             E                Am               D              :E
 When a man is running from his boss who holds a gun that fires "cost"
           E             Am           D                   :E
And people die from being old or left alone because they're cold
              E
And bombs are dropped on fighting
Am                  D                   E
cats and children's dreams are run with rats
          E             Am                 D           E
If you complain you disappear just like the lesbians and queers


E    E   Am  D E    E  Am  D   E:


{acoustic in}
 E        E   E        E   E   Am            Am D              E
   No one can love without the grace of some unseen and distant face
        E   E      E  E  Am                Am   D                  E
And you get beaten up by blacks who though they work still got the sack
         E    E          E   E  Am          Am D              E
And when your soul tells you to hide your very right to die's denied
       E   E      E  E  Am                Am D          E
And in the battle on the streets you fight computers and receipts
         E E      E      E :Am          Am D         E
And when a man is trying to change it only causes further pain

                                                 {acoustic out}
    E  E         E  E Am       Am    D       D
You realize that all along something in us going wrong
