Helplessly Hoping
Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young

Am                     C                G	          D
Helplessly hoping, her harlequins hover nearby awaiting a word
Am                     C
Gasping at glimpses of gentle true spirit
   G	                        D	
He runs - wishing that he could fly
        Am	                 G    D			
Only to trip at the sound of goodbye

Am                     C                       G	
Wordlessly watching he waits by the window and wonders
                   D
At the empty place inside
Am                  C
Heartlessly helping himself to her bad dreams
   G		             D      Am    G	
He worries did he hear a goodbye or even hello?
       
G				
They are one person.  They are two alone
	                           G7       C     G
They are three together.  They are for each other

Am                           C			      G
Standby the stairway, you'll see something certain to tell you
                   D 
Confusion has it's cost
Am                     C	            G
Love isn't lying, it's loose in a lady who lingers
              D		Am          G
Saying she is lost and choking on hello

G				
They are one person.  They are two alone
	                           G7       C     G
They are three together.  They are for each other
