LYRICS WITH CHORDS:
MISTY-EYED PERCEPTION - Music & Lyrics by Dave Leinster
Verse 1:
D Em7
She stands out in a crowd
Csus2/E G G/F#
and your heart is full of choice
D Em7
And the little things remind you
Csus2/E G G/F#
she's the one where you belong
Verse 2:
D Em7
Sometimes it's not as clear as stone
Csus2/E G G/F#
and times like rain, you feel alone
D Em7
The choice becomes a misty-eyed perception
Csus2/E G G/F#
and you're back from where you came
Chorus:
C D(2) C G G/F#
Your mind takes you on a ferriswheel ride
C D(2) C G G/F#
When your looking for that girl to arrive
C D(2) C G
if you let her just find you, you'll see shes been sitting next to you
C D(2) G C D(2) G G/F#
and around life will go, You'll find peace having nothing left to know
----------------- RIFF 1:----------------------------------------
Verse 3:
D Em7
Even sometimes when you're feeling down
Csus2/E G G/F#
and your kness get weak - then you fall to the ground
D Em7
Your thinking, "What if she never finds me?"
Csus2/E G G/F#
You lay there, it's raining down self misery
Verse 4:
D Em7
You see a drop beading from your hair
Csus2/E G G/F#
and through the drop, a figure standing there
D Em7
With outstreched hands she helps you up
Csus2/E G G/F#
this is the ride called love
Chorus followed by RIFF 1 (x2)
