Topic: Feeling Helpless ( Song )

A classic love story of anguish and hope...hope you like it.

Feeling Helpless by Jim Kenyon





[Am] I’m wondering if you remember, the night when we first met


[E]touching hands and a virgin kiss


so[Am] hard to forget


[Am] oh, we wandered into love, with a thousand tender fears


with [E] stars shining brightly in our eyes


there was [Am] never a need for tears




[Am] time has a way of passing by, it always brings winds of change


[E] seems like we have drifted apart


the fa[Am]miliar now seems strange


[Am] There's some people that believe, that true love never dies


but [E] I can feel it fading away, baby


I can [Am] see it in your eyes


.


Chorus


.




[Dm] Why am I feeling


[Am] helpless


Like I’m [Dm] living in the


[Am] dark


is there [Dm] anything we can


[Am]say or do


[E] to mend these weary


[Am] hearts




[E] to mend these weary


[Am] hearts


.




[Am] my eyes look to the future, but my heart’s living in the past.


but I’m [E] doubting if you even care


but those [Am]memories seem to last


[Am] They say you don't know what you've got, until it's gone.



I [E] couldn't disagree any more


‘cause I’ve [Am] known all along


.




[Am] the dreams we once had are distant, lost in a sea of regret


[E] there’s not much left that's unbroken


and [Am] words we’ll never forget


[Am] try and remember all the good times, but they seem so far away.


[E]I wish we had the answers


to keep [Am] our love from slipping away




.


Chorus


.






[Dm] Why do I keep


[Am] praying


That it [Dm] doesn’t have to be this


[Am] way


is there [Dm] anything I can


[Am] say or do


you know, [E] baby, I still love


[Am] you


[Dm] Why am I feeling


[Am] helpless


is there [Dm] anything I can


[Am] say or do


[Dm] Why am I feeling


[Am] helpless


because[E] baby, I still love


[Am] you


[Dm] Why am I feeling


[Am] helpless


you know [E] baby, I still love


[Am] you

Re: Feeling Helpless ( Song )

Tig, another good song from you.  You and Jets seem to both be able to keep them flowing and make it look easy, which for most it's not.   Natural song writing talent, both of you.

Re: Feeling Helpless ( Song )

Yo! Jimbo, lovely heartfelt words. Have to say you know how to put a song together. I dare say a recording won't be far behind?     

Ask not what Chordie can do for you, but what you can do for Chordie.
