Lovers Eyes

by Mumford and Sons

6 6- 6 7- 7 7- 8-

Well, love was kind for a time

7 7- 6- 6- 6- 7- 6- 6
Now just aches and it makes me blind

6 6- 6 7- 7- 7 7- 8-
This mirror holds my eyes too bright

7 7- 6- 6- 6- 6- 7- 6- 6
I can't see the others in my life

6 6- 6 7- 7- 7 7- 8-
Were we too young? Our heads too strong?

7 7- 6- 6- 6- 6- 7- 6- 6
To bear the weight of these lover's eyes.

6 6- 6 7- 7- 7 7- 8-
'Cause I feel numb, beneath your tongue

7 7- 6- 6- 6- 6- 7- 6- 6
Beneath the curse of these lover's eyes.

3- 4 3- 4 3- 3- 3- 3-
But do not ask the price I paid,

7- 6- 6- 6 6 6 6- 7-
I must live with my quiet rage,

4 3- 4 3- 3- 3-
Tame the ghosts in my head,

7- 6- 6- 6- 6 6 6- 7-
That run wild and wish me dead.

4 3- 4 3- 3- 3- 3- 3-
Should you shake my ash to the wind

7- 6- 6- 6 6 6- 7-
Lord, forget all of my sins

3- 4 3- 4- 3- 3- 3-
Oh, let me die where I lie

7- 6- 6- 6 6 6- 6 6
Neath the curse of my lover's eyes.

6 6 6- 7- 6- 6 6 6- 7- 7 7-
And I'll walk slow, I'll walk slow

7- 6- 6 6 6- 7- 7 7-
Take my hand, help me on my way.
