Help chords by John Farnham

Chords with lyrics

John does it as a massive power
ballad, which is how the singer in our band likes to play it.


INTRO

G+G x 2 bars

VERSE 1 - Just piano (upper piano register)
 G+G              E minorEm
When I was younger, so much younger than today
 C majorC            D MajorD
I never needed anybody’s help in any way
 G+G               E minorEm
But now those days are gone, Im not so self assured
 C majorC                   D MajorD
Now I find, Ive changed my mind, Ive opened up the door

CHORUS
 G+G               E minorEm
Help me if you can Im feeling down
    C majorC            D MajorD
And I do appreciate you being round
 G+G                E minorEm
Help me get my feet back on the ground
      C majorC    D MajorD     FF
Wont you please, please help me

VERSE 2
 G+G               E minorEm
And now my life has changed, in oh so many ways
C majorC             D MajorD
My independence seems to vanish in the haze
 G+G            E minorEm
But every now and then I feel so insecure
C majorC                 D MajorD
I know that I need you like Ive never done before


CHORUS
 G+G               E minorEm
Help me if you can Im feeling down
    C majorC            D MajorD
And I do appreciate you being round
 G+G                E minorEm
Help me get my feet back on the ground
      C majorC    D MajorD     FF
Wont you please, please help me
