Helplessly Hoping

Crosby, Stills & Nash

Intro

 AmCGD
 Helplessly hoping her  harlequin hovers near-by, awaiting a word.
 AmCGD
 Gasping at glimpses of gentle true spirit he runs wishing he could fly
 AmCGD
only to trip at the sound of good-bye...   

 AmCGD
 Wordlessly watching he waits by the window and wonders at the empty place in 
side
 AmCGD
 Heartlessly helping himself to her bad dreams he worries did he hear a goodb
ye
 AmCGC/G
or even...     hel-lo?    

 G
They are one person, they are two a-lone, they are three to-gether, 
 GG7CG
they are for...     each other    
Hammer an Am onto open strings - resolve to G

 AmCG
 Stand by the starway you'll see something certain to tell you confusion has its
 D
 cost.
 AmCGD
 Love isn't lying it's loose in a lady who lingers, saying she is lost 
 AmCGC/G
and choking...   on hello.
