Wandering Eye chords by Ed Harcourt

- No capo -

Into: Dm Am (repeat 8x)

Verse 1:

Dm                           Am
They say I got a wandering eye

Dm                          Am
It strays too far from the flock

B                      F
Always going where the grass is greener

  Gm                     A
A skeleton key for each lock

Dm                       Am
You can be my judge and my jury

Dm                            Am
Condemn me to the soil and the Earth

B                        F
Tied me to the end of four horses

       Gm                       A
Place a bet on which part goes first


Chorus:

     Gm
Well here I slump at the end of some nowhere

   C
My arm in a sling, and a thousand yard stare

F                         Am
Watching the boats there's family and friends

     D
They won't come ashore if they have any sense

Gm                    G
A wedding procession is moved from the church

A
I turned a good blessing into a bad curse

   B
The coyotes and crows peck at my eye

  C                      Am                Dm
To stop me from drifting away with the tide


Repeat Intro: Dm Am 4x


Verse 2:

    Dm                       Am
They say I got potential for violence

     Dm                     Am
I can kill a man with my own bare hands

    B                  F
But I can't focus on anything

   Gm                      A
Let alone have a murderous plan

     Dm                   Am
I remember when I first saw you

          Dm              Am
I couldn?t move I was paralyzed

    B                         F
I wondered if you would be the only one to

       Gm                  A
Put an end to my wandering eye


Chorus:

     Gm
Well here I slump at the end of some nowhere

   C
My arm in a sling, and a thousand yard stare

F                         Am
Watching the boats there's family and friends

     D
They won't come ashore if they have any sense

Gm                    G
A wedding procession is moved from the church

A
I turned a good blessing into a bad curse

   B                                 C
The coyotes and crows peck at my eye

  B                                    C
To stop me from drifting away with the tide


Bridge:

F                                 C
There?s no way that I can make it stop

F                             B
I have fallen so far from the top

F                                   C
There's no doubt I'll never be like you

F                                   B    A
Stay in one place live the life you choose


Dm Am Dm Am B F Gm A


End:


Dm                           Am
They say I got a wandering eye

Dm                          Am
It strays too far from the flock

B                      F
Always going where the grass is greener

  Gm                     A
A skeleton key for each lock
