Eyesight to the Blind The Who
[Original note on solo: Unfortunately, Pete plays the solo on either a
guitar tuned to Eb, or the E string tuned down to Eb (or maybe ALL
the guitars tuned down), so if you don't have two guitars you can
either 1) play all chords up a 1/2 step or 2) don't pluck the low E
string on the solo and play it in Eb.]
[Second note: stage versions played in standard tuning same as below
and begin at bar 5; solo played as below without low Eb]
Eb xx134x and xx88 11 x
Ebsus4 xx1144 and xx889x
Fsus4 1x3311 and xxx566
F 1x3211 and xxx565
[INTRO; 3 guitars; 2 strum Eb & Ebsus4, one plays arpeggios]

You [Gm]talk about your woman. I wish you could see mine.
Yeah, you [Fsus4]talk about your woman. [F] I wish you could see [Gm]mine.
Every [F]time she starts to lovin' she brings[C] eyesight to the [D]blind.
You know her daddy gave her magic, I can tell by the way she walks.
Her daddy gave her magic, I can tell by the way she walks.
Every time she starts to shakin', the dumb begin to talk.
