GIVE ME YOUR EYES – Brandon Heath
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

I know there's a lot of versions of this song already, but only version 4
seems to be on the right trail as I see it. Heath himself mostly plays this
without capo from Em, but if you want to play along with the track, this is
the way to go. Try it out.

Standard tuning                    = xx0231     = x32010   = 332010
Capo on first fret!                = x13331    = 355333
                                    = 133211   = 032010
INTRO
      

VERSE1
                                
    Looked down from a broken sky,   traced out by the city lights
                            
   My world from a mile high,  best seat in the house tonight
                                    
   Touched down on the cold black top,   hold on for the sudden stop
                                      
   Breathe in the familiar shock of confusion and chaos

PRE-CHORUS
                                
All those people going somewhere, why have I never cared?

CHORUS
                                                   
Give me your eyes for just one second, give me your eyes so I can see
                                            
Everything that I keep missing, give me your love for humanity
              
Give me your arms for the broken-hearted
                   
The ones that are far beyond my reach
                                                        
Give me your heart for the ones forgotten, give me your eyes so I can see
               
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

VERSE2
                           Dm#5
    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 buying time

PRE-CHORUS
                                
All those people going somewhere, why have I never cared?

CHORUS
                                                   
Give me your eyes for just one second, give me your eyes so I can see
                                            
Everything that I keep missing, give me your love for humanity
              
Give me your arms for the broken-hearted
                   
The ones that are far beyond my reach
                                                        
Give me your heart for the ones forgotten, give me your eyes so I can see
               
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

BRIDGE
                                 
    I've been here a million times,  a couple of million eyes
                                                        
    Just move and pass me by, I swear I never thought that I was wrong
                              
    Well I want a second glance,  so give me a second chance
                                           
    To see the way you see the people all along

CHORUS
                                                   
Give me your eyes for just one second, give me your eyes so I can see
                                            
Everything that I keep missing, give me your love for humanity
              
Give me your arms for the broken-hearted
                   
The ones that are far beyond my reach
                                                       ()
Give me your heart for the ones forgotten, give me your eyes so I can see

                                                   
Give me your eyes for just one second, give me your eyes so I can see
                                            
Everything that I keep missing, give me your love for humanity
              
Give me your arms for the broken-hearted
                   
The ones that are far beyond my reach
                                                        
Give me your heart for the ones forgotten, give me your eyes so I can see
               
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
               
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
