Mother s Little Helper - The Rolling Stones

       Am       D          Em
What a drag it is getting old

Kids are different today, I hear every mother say
                                         F         D
Mother needs something today to calm her down
           G                               C             Am
And though she's not really ill, there's a little yellow pill

         Am                           D7
She goes running for the shelter of a mother's little helper
       Em
And it helps her on her way, gets her through her busy day
Em
Doo doo doo... do do do... doo doo doo... do do do

Things are different today, I hear every mother say
                                            F        D
Cooking fresh food for her husband's just a drag
       G                            C                Am
So she buys an instant cake and she burns her frozen steak

         Am                           D7
She goes running for the shelter of a mother's little helper
       Em
And it helps her on her way, gets her through her busy day
Em
Doo doo doo... do do do... doo doo doo... do do do

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

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                        C                Am
They're so hard to satisfy, you can tranquilize your mind

         Am                           D7
She goes running for the shelter of a mother's little helper
       Em
And it helps her on her way, gets her through her busy day
Em
Doo doo doo... do do do... doo doo doo... do do do

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

Life's just much too hard today, I hear every mother say
                                      F   D
The pursuit of happiness just seems a bore
       G                                C          Am
And if you take more of those, you will get an overdose

         Am                           D7
She goes running for the shelter of a mother's little helper
       Em
And it helps her on her way, gets her through her busy day
Em
Doo doo doo... do do do... doo doo doo... do do do
