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

Chorus: (Ted Leo & Aimee Mann)
         F                 C
And even you can't help me now
Am           F    C
   You can't help
F                 C
You can't help me now
Am           F
   You can't help

Verse 2: (Ted Leo)
F             C           G       Dm     C      F  C    Am  F  C
 Any time you establish a need to atone, you're prone
F                        C          G             Dm  C      F  C    Am  F  C
 Down the tracks you can map on the seams of your own broken bones
  F                                  C        G
I wanted you to know I'm not here to indict
    F                                       C       G
And everything you've seen is like a second sight
      F                                     C G
We're inheriting the balance of a poor birthright


Chorus: (Ted Leo & Aimee Mann)
         F                 C
And even you can't help me now
Am           F    C
   You can't help
F                 C
You can't help me now
Am           F
   You can't help

Bridge: (Ted Leo & Aimee Mann)
G                              Am
 You want to say that you were waiting for this
                      F   F/C C
But you weren't ready yet
Bb                          Am
 And those "If only's" only clothe the good
                     F  C      F/C C
In front of you with regret


Verse 3: (Aimee Mann)
  F                                   C        G
I wanted you to know that it was understood
  F                                       C       G
I know if you could come around again you would
      F                                   C    G
But baby, I can't see you in this neighborhood


Chorus: (Ted Leo & Aimee Mann)
         F                 C
And even you can't help me now
Am           F    C
   You can't help
F                 C
You can't help me now
Am           F
   You can't help
F                 Em
You can't help me now
Am           F
   You can't help
F                 C
You can't help me now
