Give Me Your Eyes Brandon Heath
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...
[D#m]Look[(6-)] down from a broken sky
[B]Tr[(4)]aced out by the city lights
[F#]My [(1)]world from a mile high
[C#]Bes[(5)]t seat in the house tonight
[D#m]Touc[(6-)]h down on the cold black top
[B]Ho[(4)]ld on for the sudden stop
[F#]Bre[(1)]ath in the familiar shock
[C#]Of [(5)]confusion and chaos
[D#m]All t[(6-)]hose people g[B]oi[(4)]ng somewhere
[Abm]Why [(2-)]have I never cared?
CHORUS
[D#m]Give[(6-)] me Your eyes for just one second
[B]Gi[(4)]ve me Your eyes so I can see
[F#]Eve[(1)]rything that I keep missing
[C#]Giv[(5)]e me Your love for humanity
[D#m]Give[(6-)] me Your arms for the broken-hearted
[B]Th[(4)]e ones that are far beyond my reach
[F#]Giv[(1)]e me Your heart for the ones forgotten
[C#]Giv[(5)]e 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]I'[(4)]ve been here a million times
[F#]A c[(1)]ouple of million eyes
[B]Ju[(4)]st move to pass me by
[F#]I s[(1)]wear I never thought that I[C#] wa[(5)]s wrong
[B]We[(4)]ll, I want a second glance
[F#]So [(1)]give me a second chance
[B]To[(4)] see the way You've seen
[F#]The[(1)] people all[C#] al[(5)]ong
CHORUS (2X)
