GIVE ME YOUR EYES – Brandon Heath
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Kengus
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 Dm = xx0231 C = x32010 C/G = 332010
Capo on first fret! Bb = x13331 Gm = 355333
F = 133211 C/E = 032010
INTRO
Dm Bb F C
VERSE1
Dm Bb
Looked down from a broken sky, traced out by the city lights
F C
My world from a mile high, best seat in the house tonight
Dm Bb
Touched down on the cold black top, hold on for the sudden stop
F C
Breathe in the familiar shock of confusion and chaos
PRE-CHORUS
Dm Bb Gm
All those people going somewhere, why have I never cared?
CHORUS
Dm Bb
Give me your eyes for just one second, give me your eyes so I can see
F C/E
Everything that I keep missing, give me your love for humanity
Dm
Give me your arms for the broken-hearted
Bb
The ones that are far beyond my reach
F C/E
Give me your heart for the ones forgotten, give me your eyes so I can see
Dm Bb F C/E
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
VERSE2
Dm Dm#5
Step out on a busy street, see a girl and our eyes meet
F C/E
Does her best to smile at me to hide what's underneath
Dm Bb
There's a man just to her right, black suit and a bright red tie
F C/E
Too ashamed to tell his wife he's out of work, he's buying time
