Well, here's a thought or two I've used and like to pass them on your way
DbDb      AbAb        BbM7Bbm7                Eb MajorEb  Eb MajorEb AbAb Eb MajorEb
I found them lying there, the answers that you say you're looking for
AbAb      Eb MajorEb        F minorFm         DbDb      AbAb
Make what you will of them and you can change the way it was before

Chorus:

I hear you talk of all the happiness and emptiness you've known

Well, let me reassure you, never were you really all a-lone
DbDb     AbAb     BbM7Bbm7           Eb MajorEb  DbDb C majorC Eb MajorEb
They say in quiet desperation many people cannot see
AbAb     Eb MajorEb       F minorFm          DbDb      AbAb
They cannot see the simple truth that's not the way it has to be

Chorus:
      Eb MajorEb DbDb      AbAb
You got to fi-ind it by yourself
Eb MajorEb      DbDb        AbAb
God helps the man who helps himself, amen

'Cause that's the only way that I know how to get the message through
DbDb      AbAb        BbM7Bbm7              Eb MajorEb  DbDb C majorC Eb MajorEb
Then you, in turn, have got to learn and teach it to somebody who
AbAb      Eb MajorEb    F minorFm    DbDb       AbAb
Who felt the happiness, the emptiness the same as you
