Verse 1: (Aimee Mann)
FF       C majorC      G+G       DmDm  C majorC    FF C majorC  A minorAm FF C majorC
 Any time you establish a world of your own, you get thrown
FF         C majorC      G+G     DmDm  C majorC FF C majorC  A minorAm FF C majorC
 Try and answer a bomb with a calm undertone, alone
 FF                 C majorC    G+G
I wanted you to know that I put up a fight
  FF                     C majorC    G+G
But everything goes missing when they dim the light
  FF                  C majorC G+G
The catastrophic sinking of the windless kite

You can't help me now
A minorAm      FF
  You can't help

 Any time you establish a need to atone, you're prone
FF            C majorC     G+G       DmDm C majorC   FF C majorC  A minorAm FF C majorC
 Down the tracks you can map on the seams of your own broken bones
 FF                 C majorC    G+G
I wanted you to know I'm not here to indict
  FF                    C majorC    G+G
And everything you've seen is like a second sight
   FF                   C majorC G+G
We're inheriting the balance of a poor birthright


Chorus: (Ted Leo & Aimee Mann)
     FF         C majorC
And even you can't help me now

A minorAm      FF
  You can't help

 You want to say that you were waiting for this
           FF  F/CF/C C majorC
But you weren't ready yet
Bb majorBb             A minorAm
 And those "If only's" only clothe the good
           FF C majorC   F/CF/C C majorC
In front of you with regret

But baby, I can't see you in this neighborhood
