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