Genesis Hall Fairport Convention
Intro: Dm
Verse 1:
My f[Gm7]ather he ri[C]des with your sh[Dm]eriffs
And I [Gm7]know he would n[Bb]ever mean h[C]arm
But to s[F]ee both s[Bb]ides of a qu[C]arrel
Is to ju[Gm7]dge without hate or a[Dm]larm
Chorus:
O[F]hhh, o[Gm]hhh, h[Bb]elpless and slow
And y[F]ou don't have [Gm7]anywhere to [Dm]go
Verse 2:
You t[Gm7]ake away home[C]s from the h[Dm]omeless
And l[Gm7]eave them to d[Bb]ie in the c[C]old
The g[F]ypsy who b[Bb]egged for your p[C]resents
He will l[Gm7]augh in your face when you're [Dm]old
Chorus:
O[F]hhh, o[Gm]hhh, h[Bb]elpless and slow
And y[F]ou don't have [Gm7]anywhere to [Dm]go
Verse 3:
Well, [Gm7]one man he dr[C]inks up his wh[Dm]iskey
An[Gm7]other he dr[Bb]inks up his w[C]ine
And they'll dr[F]ink till their e[Bb]yes are r[C]ed with hate
For t[Gm7]hose of a different k[Dm]ind
Chorus:
O[F]hhh, o[Gm]hhh, h[Bb]elpless and slow
And y[F]ou don't have [Gm7]anywhere to [Dm]go
Verse 4:
When the r[Gm7]ivers run thi[C]cker than tr[Dm]ouble
I'll be t[Gm7]here at your [Bb]side in the f[C]lood
It was a[F]ll I could [Bb]do to k[C]eep myself
From t[Gm7]aking revenge of bl[Dm]ood
Chorus:
O[F]hhh, o[Gm]hhh, h[Bb]elpless and slow
And y[F]ou don't have [Gm7]anywhere to [Dm]go
O[F]hhh, o[Gm]hhh, h[Bb]elpless and slow
And y[F]ou don't have [Gm7]anywhere to [Dm]go
