#1.
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.

CHORUS:
E7
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.

CHORUS:
E7
And don't it seem like..

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.

CHORUS:#2.
E                  A
No, you don't need kicks,
            F#m
to help you face the world each day.
               D
That road goes nowhere.
          E
I'm gonna help you find yourself another way.
