       G       C
What a time to turn your back on someone
       G      C            G
What a day to be without a friend
       G          C
What a shame when no one seems to bother
G                         C              G
Who will offer shelter to candles in the wind?

[Chorus]
       G              C             G
And it follows we are only helpless children
              D/F# Em                   D
Ever changing like sunlight through the trees
       G    Bm           C                G
It's a long road we must cling to one an- other
                        C                 D                 G
Help yourselves to each other, that's the way it's meant to be

[Solo]

         G         C
And it's said that life is like a ladder
       G           C                G
Just a dream we're reaching for the stars
          G       C
Can't you see how little really matters?
G                         C              G
We are only searching for what we really are

[Chorus]
       G              C             G
And it follows we are only helpless children
              D/F# Em                   D
Ever changing like sunlight through the trees
       G    Bm           C                G
It's a long road we must cling to one an- other
                        C                 D                 G
Help yourselves to each other, that's the way it's meant to be
