Yeah, [E] [F#] yeah
[D] [A] [E]
[A] [A] I was given these [E] hands
I can make a fist with [F#] them but can't understand
[D] How to get a grip [A] with all the people around
[E] Nothing seems to stick [F#] with them, they're getting me down
[D] I pin them insensitive [A] and they [E] ask me to lend them a hand
And [F#m] I put it out [D] but then they turn my hand down
[A] Oh why do I take these [E] things around my little [A] empty hand?
I was given this heart [E] and I help it with [F#] stopping
But I can't help but start, [D] start by just [A] agreeing
With the people at large, [E] oh they're so unappealing
[F#m] Yeah they're just not that smart [D] and sometimes it's endearing
But [A] not when I ask [E] them to lend me a hand
And they [F#m] just look at me [D] like I'm some hand-me-down gal
[A] Oh why do I take [E] these things around my little empty [A] hand?
My empty, empty hand
I was given these eyes [E] and I can't see the truth
[F#] But I can feel all the [D] lies, they're falling from the roof
They're [A] making piles and piles [E] and after I let loose
I'd say that [F#] lies aren't my style
[D] So it's safe to assume [A] that if I ask it
[E] You just don't want to lend me a [F#] hand
You want to say that you do but [D] really you give a [A] damn, damn, damn
Oh why do I take [E] these things around my little empty
Oh [F#] why do I take [D] these things around my little empty
[A] Why do I take [E] these things around my little empty [A] hand?
