Intro:

C, Bb  F  C, Bb  F

Verse 1:

          C                                 Em
Doctor my eyes have seen the years, and the slow parade of fears,
        Am            F             C
Without crying; now I want to under-stand.
       C                                 Em
I have done all that I could, to see the evil and the good,
        Am               F              C
Without hiding; you must help me if you can.

Chorus 1:

          Am                  C
Doctor my eyes, (eyes, eyes), tell me what is wrong.
         Am                  G7sus (n.C) F/C
Was I un-wise, to leave them open for so long?
        C                    F/C
(Yeah), yeah, ('cos I have)...

Verse 2:

          C                                        Em
As I have wandered through this world, and as each moment has unfurled;
          Am            F                C
I've been waiting, to a-waken from these dreams.
       C                                Em
People go just where they will; I never noticed them until,
           Am                 F             C
I got this feeling, that it's later than it seems.

Chorus 2:

          Am                  C
Doctor my eyes, (eyes, eyes), tell me what you see.
             Am                                 G7sus (n.C)       F/C
I hear their cries, (cries, cries), just say if it's too late for me.
                    C
(Oh yeah), oh yeah, oh baby, baby.

Interlude:

Bb  F, C (x4)

Chorus 3:

          Am                  C
Doctor my eyes, (eyes, eyes), cannot see the sky.
            Am                G7sus (n.C)        F/C    C
Is this the prize, for having learned how not to cry?... Yeah.
