Give Me Your Eyes


Alright, so this song (on the CD) is in the key of F#, but don't let that get you down. You can drop tune a 1/2 step and play it in G (easiest solution for beginners) or capo 2nd fret (play in E), 4th fret (play in D) or 6th fret (play in C). For those of you that decide capo is the route you wanna go, I've put the numbers in parentheses. If you've never used the number system before, 1 is your root chord. For example, if you drop tune and play in G... G is your 1 chord C is your 4 chord D is your 5 chord Em is your 6- chord and Am is your 2- chord And the same numbers apply for whatever key you play in... Ebm (6-) Look down from a broken sky B (4) Traced out by the city lights F# (1) My world from a mile high C# (5) Best seat in the house tonight Ebm (6-) Touch down on the cold black top B (4) Hold on for the sudden stop F# (1) Breath in the familiar shock C# (5) Of confusion and chaos Ebm (6-) B (4) All those people going somewhere Abm (2-) Why have I never cared? CHORUS Ebm (6-) Give me Your eyes for just one second B (4) Give me Your eyes so I can see F# (1) Everything that I keep missing C# (5) Give me Your love for humanity Ebm (6-) Give me Your arms for the broken-hearted B (4) The ones that are far beyond my reach F# (1) Give me Your heart for the ones forgotten C# (5) Give me Your eyes so I can see Yeah (4X) Step out on a busy street See a girl and our eyes meet Does her best to smile at me To hide what's underneath There's a man just to her right Black suit and a bright red tie Too ashamed to tell his wife He's out of work, he's buyin' time All those people going somewhere Why have I never cared? CHORUS B (4) I've been here a million times F# (1) A couple of million eyes B (4) Just move to pass me by F# (1) C# (5) I swear I never thought that I was wrong B (4) Well, I want a second glance F# (1) So give me a second chance B (4) To see the way You've seen F# (1) C# (5) The people all along CHORUS (2X)
