Intro: | - A | E A | E A | E |
[E]What good am I if [A]I'm like all the [E]rest ([A]lic[E]k)
If I j[E]ust turn away, when I [A]see how you're [E]dressed ([A]lic[E]k)
If I [C#m]shut myself off so I can't hear you [G#m]cry
[A]What [E]good [A]am [E]I? ([A]lic[E]k)
[E]What good am I if I [A]know and don't [E]do ([A]lic[E]k)
If I s[E]ee and don't say, if I [A]look right through [E]you ([A]lic[E]k)
If I [C#m]turn a deaf ear to the thunderin' [G#m]sky
[A]What [E]good [A]am [E]I? ([A]lic[E]k)
[E]What good am I while [A]you softly [E]weep ([A]lic[E]k)
And I [E]hear in my head what you [A]say in your [E]sleep ([A]lic[E]k)
And I [C#m]freeze in the moment like the rest who don't [G#m]try
[A]What [E]good [A]am [E]I? ([A]lic[E]k)
What [C#m]good am I then to others and me
If I've [C#m]had every chance and yet [G#m]still fail to see
If [C#m]my hands are tied must I not wonder within
Who [C#m]tied them and why and [G#m]where must I have [F#m]been?
[E]What good am I if I [A]say foolish [E]things ([A]lic[E]k)
And I [E]laugh in the face of [A]what sorrow [E]brings ([A]lic[E]k)
And I [C#m]just turn my back while you silently [G#m]die
[A]What [E]good [A]am [E]I? ([A]lic[E]k)
