How can I help you 
by Patty Loveless 
 
intro: Em7  D/F#  G  G   Em7  D/F#  G  G 
 
 
A                  D            C   C 
Through the back window of our '59 wagon 
  G                       G             Dsus      D 
I watched my best friend Jamie slipping further away 
A         D           C          C 
I kept on waving till I couldn't see her 
    G                  G           C     D        G
And through my tears I asked again why we couldn't stay 
C              C        Dsus           D 
Mama whispered softly, time will ease your pain 
C               C               Dsus          D style='font-size:1px;color:#ffffff;'>
Life's about changing, nothing ever stays the same style='font-size:1px;color:#ffffff;'>
 
              G          G          D        G 
And she said, how can I help you to say goodbye 
     G        G             Dsus     D 
It's okay to hurt, and it's okay to cry 
C           D             G   G/B   C   C 
Gome let me hold you, and I will try 
G/D       Em7    Dsus   D 
How can I help you      to say goodbye 
 
 
solo: Em7 D/F#  G  G   Em7  D/F#  G  G 
 
 
I sat on our bed, he packed his suitcase 
I held a picture of our wedding day 
His hands were trembling, we both were crying 
He kissed me gently, and then he quickly walked away 
I called up Mama, she said, time will ease your pain 
Life's about changing, nothing ever stays the same style='font-size:1px;color:#ffffff;'>
 
And she said, how can I help you to say goodbye 
It's okay to hurt, and it's okay to cry 
Gome let me hold you, and I will try 
How can I help you to say goodbye 
 
solo: 
 
Sitting with Mama, alone in her bedroom 
She opened her eyes, and then squeezed my hand 
She said, I have to go now, my time here is over 
And with her final words she tried to help me understand 
Mama whispered softly, time will ease your pain 
Life's about changing, nothing ever stays the same style='font-size:1px;color:#ffffff;'>
 
And she said, how can I help you to say goodbye 
It's okay to hurt, and it's okay to cry 
Gome let me hold you, and I will try 
How can I help you to say goodbye 
 
Em7 D/F#  G  G
