Half Dead Eyes
View chords used in this chart
F#m
Once I played with a tender and very young heart
E
Half dead eyes and a brown face I had never seem
O you really touched me...
F#m
Joking with fate and trying not to take it seriously
But your image in my mind Was getting hard
E
to set free
D
And now I see myself trapped inside a barless heart
Bm C#m
A large smile always opened baby, to receive
D
O little child don't you see that now you rule me
Bm
I'm real insane a trashman threw at your feet
F#M
It's hard to find the right words to define you
O little baby what can I do to be beside you
E
How can I call your name if you hide and run away?
D Bm
I don't know, I just say
F#m E F#m E F#m E F#m
my half dead eyes.
F#m
Now I wonder what is waiting for our young hearts
Will our fates expecting join our bodies,
E
minds and souls?
Tell me 'cos I don't know...
F#M
... and even though another one now shares my life
I can't avoid your eyes,
E
'cos now mine, baby, are so blind
D
To feel your breath, your heart, gorgeous and so beauty lips
Bm
Smell your hair, your body;Lick your sweat,eternally
C#m D
Hold in my arms the object of my crazy desire
Bm
And put an end in my restless, boiling fire
(solo)
D
To feel your breath, your heart, gorgeous and so beauty lips
Bm
Smell your hair, your body;Lick your sweat,eternally
C#m D
Hold in my arms the object of my crazy desire
Bm
And put an end in my restless, boiling fire
F#m
It's hard to find the right words to define you
O little baby what can I do to be beside you
E
How can I call your name if you hide and run away?
D
I don't know, I just say;
F#m E F#m E F#m E F#m
my half dead eyes.
