My Fathers Eyes by Eric Clapton

E MajorE A augmentedA F# minorF#m BB (x3) E MajorE A augmentedA D MajorD (D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE A augmentedA BB)

BB      F#F#     BB   A augmentedA    D MajorD   A augmentedA     BB
Sailing down behind the sun, Waiting for my prince to come.

BB        F#F#   BB    A augmentedA   D MajorD    A augmentedA   E MajorE
Praying for the healing rain  To res-tore my soul again.


C# minorC#m  A augmentedA    F# minorF#m  BB   E MajorE     A augmentedA     F# minorF#m    BB
Just a toe rag on the run. How did I get here? what have I done?

C# minorC#m    A augmentedA   F# minorF#m   BB   E MajorE     A augmentedA
When will all my hopes arise?  How will I know him?

F# minorF#m    BB
  When I look in to his (eyes)

C# minorC#m   A augmentedA   F# minorF#m   BB (x3)   C# minorC#m A augmentedA D MajorD (D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE A augmentedA BB)
Look in-to my fathers eyes

BB         F#F#    BB   A augmentedA   D MajorD         F# minorF#m  BB
Then the light be-gins to shine And I-hear-those ancient lulla-bies.

BB          F#F#    BB   A augmentedA    D MajorD       A augmentedA  E MajorE
And as I watch this seedling grow, feel my heart start to over-flow.

C# minorC#m    A augmentedA    F# minorF#m   BB   E MajorE    A augmentedA     F# minorF#m    BB
Where do I find the words to say? how do I teach him? what do we play?

C# minorC#m  A augmentedA     F# minorF#m BB   E MajorE       A augmentedA
Bit by bit, I've rea-lized  that's when I need them,

F# minorF#m      BB
That's when I need my father's (eyes.)


C# minorC#m A augmentedA F# minorF#m BB  (x3) C# minorC#m A augmentedA D MajorD

Bridge:

E MajorE A augmentedA D MajorD (x3) D MajorD A augmentedA A majorA E MajorE (D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE A augmentedA BB)

BB        F#F#   BB   A augmentedA      D MajorD    A augmentedA    BB
Then the jagged edge appears through the distant clouds of tears.

BB             F#F#   BB   A augmentedA    D MajorD      A augmentedA    E MajorE
I'm like a bridge that was washed away; my foun-dations were made of clay.

C# minorC#m  A augmentedA     F# minorF#m   BB  E MajorE      A augmentedA    F# minorF#m    BB
As my soul slides down to die. How could I lose him? What did I try?

C# minorC#m  A augmentedA   F# minorF#m  BB   E MajorE      A augmentedA
Bit by bit, I recog-nized that he was with me;

F# minorF#m   BB
When I looked into his (eyes).

Outro:
C# minorC#m A augmentedA F# minorF#m BB x3  C# minorC#m A augmentedA D MajorD (D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE A augmentedA BB)
