D         Am 
Girl, you thought you found the answer  
        D                      Am   D 
on that magic carpet ride last night. 
             Am 
But when you wake up in the mornin'  
    D                      Am   D 
the world still gets you uptight. 
              F 
Well, there's nothin' that you ain't tried, 
   Am            Ab     G   F# 
to fill the emptiness inside. 
    F 
But when you come back down, girl, 
                        E 
you still ain't feelin' right.

And don't it seem like.. 
C                       F 
Kicks just keep gettin' harder to find. 
             C                    F 
And all your kicks ain't bringin' you  

peace of mind. 
           C 
Before you find out it's too late, girl, 
               E 
you better get straight. 
                 Am   D               Am        D 
No, but not with kicks..You just need help, girl. 

#2. 
D         Am 
Well, you think you're gonna find yourself 
         D            Am  D 
a little piece of paradise. 
       Am                     D 
But it ain't happened yet, so girl, you better 
      Am    D 
think twice. 
          F                 
Don't you see no matter what you do, 
Am                Ab  G    F# 
you'll never run away from you. 
           F 
And if you keep on runnin'...you'll have to pay  
    E 
the price.

E7

Before you find out it's too late, girl,

No, but not with kicks..You just need help, girl. 

Chorus:#2. 
E                  A 
No, you don't need kicks, 
            F#m 
to help you face the world each day.
