[Verse]
 
Dm
Look at the child, what did he do
   G
To deserve the fate he got from you?
Dm
Look at the man who's on his own
    G
The rest of his life, he'll be alone
 
 
[Chorus]
 
Am  Em    Am  Em    Am  Em  Dm
Helpless, helpless, helpless
Am        G
Helpless
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
Dm
I hope and pray it's not too late
     G
Have pity, oh Lord, why do they have to wait?
Dm
They're bound in chains, still they wait so long
G
How can the people be so strong yet so
 
 
[Chorus 2]
 
Am  Em
Helpless open your eyes
Am  Em
Helpless, do you realize?
Am  Em  Dm
Helpless
Am
Helpless

[Verse 3]
 
Dm
Lord, if there's hope, won't you let it be?
    G
For I look around and it seems to me
Dm
There's too many tears in too many eyes
G
Too many fears and too many lies
 
 
[Chorus 3]
 
Am  Em
Helpless don't turn away
Am  Em
Helpless, hear what I say
Am  Em  Dm
Helpless
Am
Helpless
