EM
Looked down from a broken sky
C
Traced out by the city lights
G
My world from a mile high
D/F
Best seat in the house tonight
EM
Touched down on the cold black tile
C
Hold on for the sudden stop
G
Breath in the familiar shock
D/F D
Of confusion and chaos
EM C
Are those people going somewhere?
G D
Why have I never cared?
Chorus:
EM
Give me your eyes for just one second
C
Give me your eyes so I can see
G
Everything that I keep missing
D/F
Give me your love for humanity
EM
Give me your arms for the broken hearted
C
The ones that are far beyond my reach
G
Give me your heart for the once forgotten
( D )
Give me your eyes so I can see
EM
yeah
C
yeah
G
yeah
D/F
yeah
Step out on a busy street
See a girl and our eyes meet
Does her best to smile at me
To hide whats underneath
Theres a man just to her right
Black suit and a bright red tie
To ashamed to tell his wife
He's out of work
He's buying time
Are those people going somewhere?
Why have I never cared?
Chorus
Ive Been there a million times
A couple of million eyes
Just moving past 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 alone
Chorus (x2)
