[Verse]
Dm7 C    Dm7                          Am7
The same drink that gets me out the door
Dm7    C    Dm7                          Am7
Is the same drink that puts me on the floor
Dm7     C   Dm7                      Am7   
And the new thing I wanna try some more 
Dm7    C    Dm7                       Am7
Is the same mistake I used to make before

[Chorus]
        Dm7
If I'm helpless tell me now
        Am
Tell me now
        Dm7
If I'm helpless tell me now
        Am
Tell me now
        Dm7
If I'm helpless tell me now
        Am
Tell me now
         Dm7                      Am   
And I'll stop trying to figure it out

Dm7   Am
Dm7   Am

[Verse]
Dm7 C    Dm7                       Am7
The same brain that brings me ecstacy
Dm7    C    Dm7                        Am7
Is the same pain that gets the best of me
    Dm7    C  Dm7                        Am7
And the one I love the most just said to me
Dm7 C    Dm7                     Am7
A broken heart is all I'll ever be

[Chorus]
        Dm7
If I'm helpless tell me now
        Am
Tell me now
        Dm7
If I'm helpless tell me now
        Am
Tell me now
        Dm7
If I'm helpless tell me now
        Am
Tell me now
         Dm7                      Am   
And I'll stop trying to figure it out
