Verse:

(Just in case: here, I'm playing the piano part with the 5th string,
but, it's actually with the 6th or 7th on Drop A, but to make it easy,
you can also play it on the 5th and you will have the same sound)

Searching your eyes for a hint or a trace of humility
Searching your eyes for the saint is an act of futility
Searching your eyes for a hint or a trace of it
searching your eyes for humility
searching your eyes for a hint or a trace
I'm still searching, searching...
