Eyes of a Child

I wrote this song for weeks 51/52 of SSG and recorded
my version of it but would suggest you check out Pbee's
cover of it. He did an excellent job!

Thanks Pbee

Hi John,
Thanks Pbee
your welcome. Seems like a bit of de javu here.

Dog, and Taso thanks for the feedback that I know I saw.

The chords I use are a little different to John's original, mainly cos I really suck at a B7 chord change, so I had to find another way of doing it. Here's mine:

Capo on 2nd fret all chords relative to that.
Poor-mans version of Bm xx0432
I suck at Bm too, I suppose its called Bm/D ?

The Eyes of a Child

Em------------------D6-------Em
What the eyes of a child can see

Em--------
Dear Lord

Em-------------------D6----------Em
What the eyes of a child can see

Em------Am----------Em
All the anger and blame

Em------Am-------------Em
All the suff'ring and shame

Em-----------------------D6----------Em
What the eyes of a child can see

What the ears of a child can hear
Dear Lord
What the ears of a child can hear
All the screams and the shouts
All the fears and self doubts
What the ears of a child can hear

Bridge:

Dm----Am------------------Dm------Am
In the night when there is no one to see

Dm--Am------------------Bm (poor-mans version)
The mind of a child can dream .....

-----Em
can dream

What the words of a child can say
Dear lord
What the words of a child can say
Daddy why can't you stay
Mommy cries every day
What the words of a child can say

What the eyes of a child can see
Dear Lord
What the eyes of a child can see
All the anger and blame
All the suff'ring and shame
What the eyes of a child can see
