Give Me Your Eyes by Brandon Heath
VERSE 1
Am
Looked down from a broken sky,
F
traced out by the city lights
C
My world from a mile high,
G
best seat in the house tonight
Am
Touched down on the cold black top,
F
hold on for the sudden stop
C
Breathe in the familiar shock
G
of confusion and chaos
PRE CHORUS
Am F
All those people going somewhere,
C G
why have I never cared?
CHORUS
Am
Give me your eyes for just one second,
F
give me your eyes so I can see
C
Everything that I keep missing,
G
give me your love for humanity
Am
Give me your arms for the broken-hearted
F
The ones that are far beyond my reach
C
Give me your heart for the ones forgotten,
G
give me your eyes so I can see
Am F C G
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
VERSE 2
Am
Step out on a busy street,
F
see a girl and our eyes meet
C
Does her best to smile at me to
G
hide what’s underneath
Am
There’s a man just to her right,
F
black suit and a bright red tie
C
Too ashamed to tell his wife he’s
G
out of work, he’s buying time
BRIDGE
F
I’ve been here a million times,
C
a couple of million eyes
F
Just move and pass me by,
C G F
I swear I never thought that I was wrong
F
Well I want a second glance,
C
so give me a second chance
F C G
To see the way you see the people all along
