TITLE: Behind Blue Eyes
Lyrics and Chords


No one knows what it's like
To be the bad man
To be the sad man
Behind blue eyes

/ Em G / D - / C - / Asus2 - /

No one knows what it's like
To be hated
To be fated
To telling only lies

{Refrain}
But my dreams, they aren't as empty
As my conscience seems to be
I have hours, only lonely
My love is vengeance, that's never free

/ C D G - / C D E - / Bm - C - / D - A2 - /

No one knows what it's like
To feel these feelings
Like I do
And I blame you

No one bites back as hard
On their anger
None of my pain and woe
Can show through

{Refrain}

When my fist clenches, crack it open
Before I use it and lose my cool
When I smile, tell me some bad news
Before I laugh and act like a fool

( / E - Bm A / / ) / E - Bm A / E - Bm G / 
     / D - Bm A / D - Bm A / ( / E - Bm A / / ) 

And if I swallow anything evil
Put your finger down my throat
And if I shiver, please give me a blanket
Keep me warm, let me wear your coat

/ E - Bm A / E - Bm G / D - Bm A / D - Bm A / 
     ( / E - Bm A / / Bm - A E / / Bm - / )

No one knows what it's like
To be the bad man
To be the sad man
Behind blue eyes
