Terminal Eyes by Al Stewart Intro ----- F# F# Cut glass porcupine sailing on the Serpentine Fingers on the skyline pulling down the black blinds Terminal eyes at the edge of the night Rivulet of dark wine moving in a straight line Smudging out the stop signs, running down the life lines Terminal eyes at the edge of the night G# Shadows on the ceiling, coffee cup congealing, Tarot cards revealing, a solitary feeling Terminal eyes, but I think it's alright C# Silver studded jet plane screaming through the migraine Cutting through the cellophane, wrappers of your tired brain Terminal eyes - put out the light Chorus B D E B Terminal Eyes, only the lonely Arabian skies B D E B C# Terminal Eyes, calling you home from your restless disguise. F# (guitar solo) Verse 2 ------- F# Hands of the windmill moving to a standstill Rain on the windowsill, ashes on the phone bill Terminal eyes at the edge of the night Rain drop fire-flies sparkle on the shop blinds Echoes of the summertime flicker in the street-signs Terminal eyes at the edge of the night G# Shadows on the ceiling, coffee cup congealing Eyes that look unseeing, hands that move unfeeling Terminal eyes, I think it's alright C# Silver studded sea plane breaking through the migraine Cutting throught the cellophane, enveloping your tired brain Terminal eyes: put out the light Chorus ------ B D E B Terminal eyes only the lonely Arabian skies B D E B Terminal eyes calling you home from your restless disguise repeat until fade Guitar break between lines ------------------------------| ------------------------------| -----1--2--1------------------| --4-----------4--2--1--2--4---| ------------------------------| ------------------------------| Guitar solo ----------------------------------------------------9-9-9-14-----| -----------------------------------r-----------5-7---------------| -------s---------------h---3-6--6-8-6-6-4--4-6-------------------| --4---6-4---s---1-4---4-6----------------------------------------| -----------4-2---------------------------------------------------| -----------------------------------------------------------------| s = slide h = hammer-on r = reverse bend
