Mother's Little Helper

Written by Mick Jagger/Keith Richards

	  		   

INTRO: (7th fret for orig.) 
  
Dm             G          Am   
What a drag it is getting old...   

#1.   
Em   
Kids are different today, I hear every mother say,   
                                             F  D  
Mother needs something today, to calm her down.   
           G                G7              C             Am   
And though she's not really ill, there's a little yellow pill..   
            Am7                            D7   
She goes running for the shelter of her mother's little helper,   
       Em   
and it helps her on her way, gets her through her busy day.   

#2.   
Em   
Things are different today, I hear every mother say,   
                                             F  D  
cooking fresh food for her husband's just a drag.   
        G                 G7           C                Am   
So, she buys an instant cake and she burns her frozen steak,   
           Am7                         D7   
and goes running for the shelter of a mother's little helper,   
        Em   
and two help her on her way, get her through her busy day.

#3. Em Men just aren't the same today, I hear every mother say, F D they just don't appreciate that you get tired. G G7 C Am They're so hard to satisfy, but you can tranquilize your mind. Am7 D7 and go running for the shelter of a mother's little helper, Em and four help you through the night, help to minimize your plight.

Em C D G Doctor please, some more of these..outside the door, C she took four more. D7 Em What a drag it is getting old..

#4. Em Life's just much too hard today, I hear every mother say, F D the pursuit of happiness just seems a bore. G G7 C Am And if you take more of those, you will get an overdose. Am7 D7 No more running for the shelter of a mother's little helper, Em they just helped you on your way, through your busy dying day.

Em C D G Doctor please, some more of these..outside the door, C she took four more. D7 Em What a drag it is getting old..
