[Intro]
 
F#       A#madd9
F#add2   C#  F#
A#madd9  C#  F#
 
 
[Verse]
 
F#                               A#m
God knows what is hiding in that weak and drunken heart
            G#         G#add4    G#
I guess you kissed the girls and made them cry 
      F#                  F#add4 F#
those Hardfaced Queens of misadventure
F#                                A#m
God knows what is hiding in those weak and sunken eyes
  G#             G#add4 G#
a Fiery throng of muted angels
       F#               F#add4  F#
Giving love and getting nothing back
 
 
[Chorus]
 
F#              A#m
People help the people
            G#
And if your homesick, 
                           F#
give me your hand and i'll hold it
F#              A#m
People help the people
                 G#
And nothing will drag you down
       D#m  C#   F#
Oh and if I had a brain, 
       D#m  C#   F#
Oh and if I had a brain
       D#m       C#m       F#
i'd be cold as a stone and rich as the fool
     D#m               F           F#         F#
That turned, all those good hearts away
 
 
[Verse]
 
F#                                A#m
God knows what is hiding, in that world of little consequence
            G#      G#add4   G#
Behind the tears, inside the lies
  F#              F#add4 F#
A thousand slowly dying sunsets
F#                                A#m
God knows what is hiding in those weak and drunken hearts
  G#              G#add4    G#
I guess the loneliness came knocking
       F#               F#add4  F#
No one needs to be alone, oh save me
 
 
[Chorus]
 
F#              A#m
People help the people
            G#
And if your homesick, 
                           F#
give me your hand and i'll hold it
F#              A#m
People help the people
                 G#
And nothing will drag you down
       D#m  C#   F#
Oh and if I had a brain, 
       D#m  C#   F#
Oh and if I had a brain
       D#m       C#m       F#
i'd be cold as a stone and rich as the fool
     D#m               F           F#         F#
That turned, all those good hearts away
 
 
[Instrumental]
 
F#  A#m  G#add4  F#
F#  A#m  G#add4  F#
F#            A#m       G#add4      F#
na naaa na na naaa
 
 
[Chorus]
 
F#              A#m
People help the people
            G#
And if your homesick, 
                           F#
give me your hand and i'll hold it
F#              A#m
People help the people
                 G#
And nothing will drag you down
       D#m  C#    F#
Oh and if I had a brain, 
       D#m  C#    F#
Oh and if I had a brain
       D#m       C#m       F#
i'd be cold as a stone and rich as the fool
     D#m               F           F#       C#  F#
That turned, all those good hearts away

I think the C#m should be C#

I’d change the c# Minor to a major, the minor just doesn’t sound right

Well make up your mind...this is the original key, but it should have whether only b's or #; i guess original i in F# sharp, so the b Chords should be changed...
