[Fm] [Bb] [Fm] [Eb]
[Fm] [Bb] [Cm] Girl, [Fm] you thought you found [Bb] the answer on that [Ab] magic carpet ride [Bb] last [Ab] night
But when you wake [Bb] up in the [Fm] morning, the world still [Eb] gets you [Bb]
uptight
[Fm] [Cm] Well, [Db] there's nothing better you ain't tried
To [Fm] fill the emptiness inside
[Db] When you come back down, girl, still ain't feeling [C]
right
Don't it [Ab] seem like kicks just keep [Db] getting harder to find
[Ab] And all your kicks ain't [Db] bringing you peace of mind
[Ab] Before you find out it's too late, girl, you better [C] get straight
No, but not [Fm] with kicks
You [Cm] just [Fm] need help, [Bbm] girl
[Cm] [F] Well, you [Bb] think you're gonna find yourself a little [Ab] piece of paradise
[Bb]
[Ab] [Gm] But [Fm] it ain't [Bbm] happened yet, so girl, [Ab] you better [Gm] think [F] [Bb] twice
[Ab] [Gm] [Db] Don't you see no matter what you do, you'll [Fm] never run away from you
[Db] And if you keep on running, you'll have to [C] pay the price
And don't it seem [Ab] like kicks just keep [Db] getting harder to find
And [Ab] all your kicks ain't bringing [Db] you peace of mind
Before [Ab] you find out it's too late, girl, you better [C] get straight
No, you [F] don't need kicks to help [D] you face the world each day
That [Bb] road goes nowhere
I'm gonna [C] help you find yourself another [Ab] way
Kicks just keep [Db] getting harder to find
And [Ab] all your kicks ain't bringing [Db] you peace of mind
Before [Ab] you find out it's too late, girl, you better [C] get straight
And don't it [A] seem like [Ab] kicks just keep [Db] getting harder to find
[Ab] And all your kicks ain't [Db] bringing you peace of mind
Before [Ab] you find out it's too late, girl, you better [C] get straight
