DOCTOR MY EYES---- Jackson Browne
Capo on 1st fret, all chords are relative
Open: E/E bass, D/E*, A/E , E
(Just thump on E bass note between single chord strums)
E
Doctor, my eyes have seen the years
G#m C#m
And the slow parade of fears without crying
A E
Now I want to understand
I have done all that I could, to see the evil and the good
without hiding. You must help me if you can
C#m E
Doctor, my eyes, tell me what is wrong
C#m B A, E, D/E, A/E, E
Was I unwise to leave them open for so long
'Cause I have wandered through this world
And as each moment has unfurled, I've been waiting
to awaken from these dreams
People go just where there will, I never noticed them until
I got this feeling, that it's later than it seems
C#m E
Doctor, my eyes, tell me what you see
C#m B D/E**, A,(E,D/E,A/E,E rept)
I hear their cries, just say if it's too late for me
Instrumental break
C#m E
Doctor, my eyes cannot see the sky
C#m B A, E,D/E, /E, E
Is this the prize for having learned how not to cry
*D/E. Played on an acoustic guitar, this sounds more like the
piano chord when the form is played from 2nd position and extended
over 3 frets. Notes: E, A. F#, A, D, F#
**End of refrain before instrumental is slightly different than others
