[Verse 1]
Bmaj7This girl I know needs some shelter, She don't believe anyone can help her
Bsus4She's doing so much harm, doinEm/Bg so much damage, ButBmaj7 you don't want to get involved
You tell her she can manage, Em/BAnd you can't change the way she feels

But you could put your arms around her
Bmaj7I know you want to live yourself, But could you forgive yourself
A6sus2 Gmaj7-5
If you left her just the way you found her

Bmaj7Sometimes you look so small, need some shelter, Just runnin' round and round, helter skelter
Bsus4And I've leaned on me, Now you can lean on me
Bmaj7And that's more than love, that's the way, It should be
Bsus4 Em/B A6sus2 Gmaj7-5
Now I can't change the way you think, But I can put my arms around you
Bsus4 Em/B A6sus2 Gmaj7-5
That's just part of the deal, That's the way I feel
