Your Mothers Eyes chords by Mel Tillis

C                             G7              C
My children come sit here and hold to daddy's hands

                                   D7           G7
For I must tell you something that I don't understand

F                               C             F
Lately we've been living in the shadows of surprise

      C                    G7               C
Since I'm not the only man in your mother's eyes


                              G7               C
I can't say it's my fault and I won't say it's hers

                                  D7                G7
Cause I might have neglected when her need for me occurred

F                            C       F
But we're still a family and must realize

     C                    G7               C
That I'm not the only man in your mother's eyes


F              G7          F           C
No I'm not the only man in her eyes anymore

    D7                     G7
And soon she'll be leaving walking out the door


    C                    G7            C
And things won't be easy with her not around

                                 D7                   G7
And the shame that's now with us will be hard to live down

F                        C                    F
So children bear with me promise daddy you'll try

      C                    G7               C
Since I'm not the only man in your mother's eyes

                           G7               F  C
Since I'm not the only man in your mother's e-yes
