         Am

1. If I came into your city, hung up on a game,

                      G                                                        Am

    would you give me your assistance, though you didn’t know my name.

                         Am

    Though you didn’t know my name, though you didn’t know my pain,

                      G                                                        Am

    would you give me your assistance, though you didn’t know my name.

2.     I woke up in a hotel room,    and felt the weather couldn’t touch me,

Am                                G

    had a dream at the heart of doom,

    D                  A                           E

    if I couldn’t hope you wouldn’t trust me.

Am                     G              - D                        A                            E 

    Injured part is in my bed,   and someone said they shouldn’t touch me,

Am                                    G

    can the surgeon cut it from my head,

    D                  A                            E

    if I couldn’t hope you wouldn’t trust me.

3. If I came into your city, hang up on a game,

                       G                                                        Am

    would you give me your assistance, though you didn’t know my name. 

                         Am

    Though you didn’t know my name, though you didn’t know my name,

                         G                                                     Am

    would you give me your assistance, though you didn’t see my pain.

4.    Don’t want to wake up far away,      to hear them say ‘we found him’,

Am                                 G            - D                    A                   E

    would I see there’s more to me       than the shape I walk around in.
