Dm G
I wish that I'd arrived a little sooner -
A# Dm
You really should have called we'd have come here right away
Dm G A#
You tried to help yourself but you got it wrong
F G
You've thrown yourself
A# Dm
Into the flames 'cause you're covered in cold
G
But these are your friends
A#
They give out a nice warm glow
F G A#
You've tried so hard to see for yourself
Dm
Your perspective is wrong
G
These are your friends
A# F
Let them come guide you on
Dm G A#
Listen now - now's the time to listen
Dm
There're lessons to be learned
G A#
I've seen this before in my own life
Dm G
You feel covered up, removed from the world around you
A#
With all your senses dulled you'd do anything to feel
Dm G A#
You tried to help yourself, but you got it wrong
F G
You've thrown yourself
A# Dm
Into the flames 'cause you're covered in cold
G
But these are your friends
A#
They give out a nice warm glow
F G A#
What have you done? You're cutting your cord
Dm
You're floating in space
G
But these are your friends
A#
They'll be your star-map home
F G A#
Everybody needs some help sometimes (crescendo to the end...)
