[Intro]
G    Em    C    D

[Verse]
       G
I'm a little unsteady
       Em
I'm a little lost inside
        C
And my heart stays heavy
         D
I don't say what's on my mind

                  G
And I think it's starting to show
                  Em
Can you tell I'm losing control
                 C
I feel like I'm broke
in to so many pieces
                       D
Don't know if you can fix me

[Chorus]
                  G
And can somebody take this pain
          D
I'm just not the same
        Em
I'm so lost and confused
Don't know what else to do
         C
Can you help me
         C
Can you help me
              G
Can somebody take this pain
        D
I just wanna change
        Em
I'm so done tryna prove

That I know where to move
     C
God help me
         C
Can you help me

[Break]
             G
'Cause I've tried all the smoking
 and the drinking wasting time
            Em
Yeah, I've tried all the running,
hiding from the pain inside
         C
I can't lie a broken heart
 is what I find so I know
 D
That I can't help me
