[Intro]
D                 Em          Em7 Em
What a drag it is getting old ■   ■ 


[Verse]
E                       
Kids are different today
  E                    
I hear ev'ry mother say
                                F             D
Mother needs something today to calm her down ■
    G                          
And though she's not really ill
C                Am         
There's a little yellow pill
                                    D                       
She goes running for the shelter of a mother's little helper
    E                                                     Em
And it helps her on her way gets her through her busy day ■ 
E                         
Things are different today
  E                    
I hear ev'ry mother say
                                        F D   
Cooking fresh food for a husband's just a drag
G                               C             Am          
So she buys an instant cake and she burns her frozen steak


[Chorus]
                                 D             Am           
And goes running for the shelter of a mother's little helper
E                                                    Em 
And two help her on her way get her through her busy day


[Verse]
C                       D       
Doctor please some more of these
G                         C        
Outside the door she took four more
D                 Em          E
What a drag it is getting old ■
    E                         
Men just aren't the same today
  E                    
I hear ev'ry mother say
                                    F         D
They just don't appreciate that you get tired ■
G                              C                        
They're so hard to satisfy You can tranquilize your mind
Am                               D                       
So go running for the shelter of a mother's little helper
    E7                                   E                Em    
And four help you through the night help to minimize your plight


[Chorus]
C                       D       
Doctor please some more of these
G                         C        
Outside the door she took four more
D                 E       Em 
What a drag it is getting old
E                              
Life's just much too hard today
  E                    
I hear ev'ry mother say
                                    F D7  
The pursuit of happiness just seems a bore
    G                             C           Am      
And if you take more of those you will get an overdose
                                   D                       
No more running for the shelter of a mother's little helper
E                                                            Em G
They just helped you on your way through your busy dying day ■  ■
