Chords with lyrics

Intro: G+G


     G+G               C majorC
I love to see cottonwoods blossom in the early spring
     D MajorD                G+G
I love to see the message of love that the bluebird brings.
      C majorC    D MajorD        G+G       E minorEm
But when I see you walking with him down along the strand
       C majorC      D MajorD         G+G
I wish I were blind when I see you with your man.
     G+G                 C majorC
I love to see your hair shining in the long summer's light.
     D MajorD                  G+G
I love to watch as stars fill the sky on a summer night.
   C majorC          D MajorD
Music plays, you take his hand,
        G+G             E minorEm
I watch how you touch him as you start to dance
         C majorC      D MajorD         G+G
And I wish I were blind when I see you with your man.

C majorC           D MajorD     G+G
 We struggle here but all our love's in vain
      C majorC                 D MajorD
Well, these eyes that once filled me with your beauty
  G+G      C majorC     G+G C majorC
Now fill me with pain.
C majorC            D MajorD
And the light that once entered here
  G+G          E minorEm
Is banished from me.
       C majorC             D MajorD
Oh, and this darkness is all baby that my heart sees.
        C majorC
And though this world is filled with the
D MajorD        G+G         E minorEm
Grace and beauty of God's hand,
       C majorC      D MajorD         G+G
I wish I were blind when I see you with your man.
