Killers Eyes chords by The Kinks

Chords with lyrics

BB             C#7C#7
I see so little hope in you, With so much despair
    E MajorE               E MajorE        BB
As I look in your eyes I wonder what thoughts linger there
 BB                 C#7C#7
Life means nothing to you, At least that's what they say
     E MajorE                   BB
But it doesn't mean that you have the right to take life away


     C# minorC#m                     G# minorG#m
How were we to know, What was going on inside your mind
     C# minorC#m
You never let it show, What was going on behind

 BB    C#7C#7         E MajorE    BB
.............. Those killer's eyes

     BB     C#7C#7    E MajorE    BB
Killer's eyes

E MajorE                BB
You've seen your picture in the paper
C# minorC#m
You're little sister's pinned it on the wall
E MajorE                 BB
She thinks you're in some kind of movie
C# minorC#m
Imagine her surprise, when she saw you on the news

Reporters came around and asked for interviews


BB           C#7C#7
So little compassion, so icy cool
   E MajorE                   BB
They say you were a poor boy, you know that life can be cruel
BB                  C#7C#7
Hate builds up from childhood, your world was a slum
     E MajorE               BB
But you haven't got the right to blow it to kingdom come


C# minorC#m                            G# minorG#m
How could we know, What it was like inside a killer's mind
     C# minorC#m
It never really showed, You kept the secret deep inside

BB    C#7C#7          E MajorE    BB
.............. Those killer's eyes

     BB     C#7C#7    E MajorE    BB
Killer's eyes

       BB
You say the world is full of bullshit
    C#7C#7
So you kill just as you see fit
   E MajorE                BB
They say that you're a fanatic with a mission
  BB            C#7C#7
We all go through Hell, in some kind of way
     E MajorE                 BB
Can you tell me what it's like to be there every day?

(actual song has a key change here)
E MajorE                BB
When you were young you had a vision
C# minorC#m
Why'd you go and do a thing like that?
E MajorE               BB
And now we see you on the television
C# minorC#m
Imagine our surprise, when we saw you on the news

And reporters came around and asked for interviews

   BB            C#7C#7
I see so little hope in you, So much despair
   E MajorE                BB
As I look in your eyes I wonder what thoughts linger there
BB                   C#7C#7
Life means nothing to you, At least that's what they say
     E MajorE                   BB
But it doesn't mean that you have the right to take life away

        C# minorC#m                          G# minorG#m
When you were just a child, You'd hide away when other children cried
       C# minorC#m                            BB
But how were we to know, These tears that flowed were from a killer's eyes

BB  C#7C#7  E MajorE   BB

   BB           C#7C#7
I see so little hope in you, So much despair
   E MajorE                 E MajorE       BB
As I look in your eyes I wonder, What thoughts linger there
 BB                  C#7C#7
Life means nothing to you, At least that's what they say
     E MajorE                   BB
But it doesn't mean that you have the right to take life away


BB  C#7C#7          E MajorE    BB
...........Those killer's eyes.........
             BB   C#7C#7  E MajorE  BB
See the whites of their eyes................
BB  C#7C#7          E MajorE    BB
...........Those killer's eyes.........
             BB   C#7C#7  E MajorE
See the whites of their eyes........
