Mayer, John - Helpless Lyrics






The same drink that gets me out the door
Is the same drink that puts me on the floor
And the new thing I wanna try some more
Is the same mistake I used to make before

If I'm helpless tell me now
Tell me now
If I'm helpless tell me now
Tell me now
If I'm helpless tell me now
Tell me now
And I'll stop trying to figure it out

The same brain that brings me ecstacy
Is the same pain that gets the best of me
And the one I love the most just said to me
A broken heart is all I'll ever be

If I'm helpless tell me now
Tell me now
If I'm helpless tell me now
Tell me now
If I'm helpless tell me now
Tell me now
And I'll stop trying to figure it out

Help me
Help me
Help me

If I'm helpless tell me now
Tell me now
If I'm helpless tell me now
Tell me now
If I'm helpless tell me now
Tell me now
And I'll stop trying to figure it out

If I'm helpless
If I'm helpless
If I'm helpless
Then I'll stop trying to figure it out

  4. B.... C....

    Not one intelligent comment. Just listen and enjoy.

  9. M.... s....

    3:22 - Could this girl be any more lame?

  10. E.... I....

    2:33 I think the girl on the right is the same girl who won the free ticket when John asked him if he could ask her extra seat in the Dive Bar ad.

  11. 2.... ....

  12. E.... R....

  14. D.... S....

    This is why he should’ve stayed with the strat.

    D.... S....

    Drone Studios so true

  15. H.... M....

    the song is all good, but past minute four it gets totally BADAS! especially the final riff

  16. A.... C....

    pino paladino was amazing on this so subtle but my gosh

  17. H.... A....

    2:20 I think is most peoples reaction to this solo

  18. s.... f....

    I seriously wanna meet John Mayer just to tell him that he is truly the best, I mean anyone who aspires to play guitar or write music can feel me on that its ridiculous how much of a musical genius he is!

  19. J.... ....

    I'm still in..awe.. That is some piece of real guitar-art that no one can like John Mayer

  20. A.... S....

    I only wish i was present in this room

  21. D.... J....

  34. X.... M....

  35. L.... F....

  36. S.... L....

    Wow...I came back to it again😁😁👌👍😁when I first saw JM live on Facebook at the budlight night😁😁😁✌️✌️👍👍👌👌👏👏👏👏👏yes⚡️🎸⚡️☀️💥💥💥💥💥🔥🔥🔥

  37. T.... A....

    First song in my head when I’d be having a rough go at work. Then The Home Depot playlist would play Daughters and I’d be just fine 🤗 fired for attendance lol come to Portland and I promise I won’t be late ;)

    T.... A....

    Also, raw.

    T.... A....

    Talent.

  38. D.... M....

    SIMPLESMENTE INCRÍVEL !!!!!!!!

  39. C.... A....

    He wore the same shirt and opened with this song in Singapore 2019

  40. C.... c....

    John mayer is so country and cute 😆

  41. D.... P....

    He is great at guitar, songwriting, performing and also singing.
    But.. He must be always thanksful to SRV!
    So much of SRV in JM songs and approach.

  42. J.... W....

    How cringe is this crowd man

  43. N.... L....

    1:11 what is Pino saying?

    N.... L....

    bass up or drum sound up.

  44. M.... S....

    Anyone knows if there is a similar high quality audio recording of this whole concert? I’m desperate in finding it...

  45. J.... M....

    I forgot to breath the whole time 😱 Flawless rhythm.

  46. J.... B....

    Woo! JM slayed this one. This might be my new favorite track. This live performance was a beauty too!

  47. L.... B....

    John Mayer without Palladino and Steve Jordan makes no sense!!!

  48. m.... s....

    Hi Sir John Mayer, just wanted to say I love you 😊

  49. A.... D....

    this grooves harder than I don't need no doctor

    A.... D....

    It's a sweet groove. But to me "I dont need no doctor" is just the best

  50. s.... ....

    John with Pino, David Ryan and Steve Jordan is pretty much as good as it gets

  51. L.... C....

    ugh that bridge at 2:46 <3

  52. G.... C....

    4:13 enough pedals? john is the man!

  53. S.... B....

    ❤️❤️❤️❤️👍👌👍👌👍👍👌✌🏻✌🏻✌🏻✌🏻🕊🕊🕊🕊

  54. D.... M....

    why is his crowd never enthousiastic. I mean this guy is one of the best guitarists in the world and they be standing there like ayyy ok.

    D.... M....

    I went and I thought I’d be super enthusiastic but truth be told you’re actually so shocked of how good he is live you just kinda admire. Easily the greatest music experience I’ve ever and will ever have.

    D.... M....

    Watch his show on YouTube from Rock at Rio 2013

  55. N.... L....

    I love how Bud Light haven't seen the video where John attacks a guy for drinking a Bud Light lime

  56. T.... G....

    He is the only rocker who can get more girls in his bed than Robert Plant ahah

  57. P.... s....

    If i'm elvis tell me now tell me now

  58. P.... R....

    I bet this is amazing LIVE!! 💜💜💜🔥🎶🎶🎶🎶

  59. A.... A....

    Beautiful chicks that enjoy a good guitar solo... Ladies, take this example

  60. P.... A....

    Everything in this version is just tasty. I can listen to this on loop at home, in the car, everywhere! Love it so much ♥♥♥

  61. M.... R....

  63. G.... N....

  64. M.... ....

    My addiction is this song

  65. T.... A....

    Your solo gutar makes me orgasm

  66. G.... G....

    You ever see a room full of women all get wet at the same time?

  67. B.... L....

    Girl at 2:21 is me the whole song

  68. A.... V....

    the public does not seem excited

  69. M.... P....

    1:11 Pino Palladino on the Mike saying .... MORE BASS

  87. T.... ....

    Is that Dexter at like 16 seconds in?

  88. J.... R....

    If you ever feel useless remember​ that JM has backup guitarists.

    J.... R....

    Sharkey is excellent

    J.... R....

    they're not backups tho.. they're rhythm guitarists while john is lead. both are essential to music

    J.... R....

    @adza botchway yea but still a good joke

  89. L.... ....

    What a live performer. One of the best guitarists around

  90. F.... R....

    That tone!

  91. B.... ....

  93. L.... H....

    Love!...this!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

  94. D.... S....

    John Mayer played like all of the great rock guitarists were merging onto his Autobahn. We love his music and rarely does a day go by without his brilliant songs and complex musicality on our waves up here in Canada.

  95. B.... R....

    Check out the audience close up at 0:15. Does anyone else agree that man is actor Michael C. Hall who plays Dexter?

  96. T.... B....

    Is that chick with overalls not the cutest?
