Intro
Am F G
[Verse 1]
Am A#
The one eyed old man told me that the face that I will see
Am A#
Has paralysed a thousand brave mensure of victory
Am A#
I cannot fight blindfolded and I'd freeze if I should see
Am A#
So I need to sacrifice my eyes to see all from within
Am A#
The one eyed old man had told me of a lake that no one knows
Am
Where the end of the sky unites with the
bottom
A#
Countless feet down deep
Am
And he told me when this world was young
A#
Into its depths his eye he had thrown
Am
So that, though one eyed,
A#
he could see more than can be seen
[Chorus]
F C Dm
I'll throw my eyes into the lake
F C Dm
So that I will see from within
F C Dm
I'll throw my eyes into the lake
F C A# Dm
And when blind I will still see
Am F G
At the bottom of the lake
Am F G Am
My two eyes will shine like the stars
Am F G
At the bottom of the lake
Am F G Cm
I will see no matter how near or far
Cm G# A#
At the bottom of the lake
Cm G# A# Cm
My two eyes will shine like the stars
Cm G# A#
At the bottom of the lake
Cm G# G Cm
I will see no matter how near or far
[Verse 2]
Am
Regardless at which speed my horse
A#
Takes me through the night
Am
No matter how sharp the blade
A#
Of my sword seems to be
A
Even with the aid of two pair
A#
Of eyes way up high
Am
In the end before the Beast its face
A#
I would have had to see
Am
But with my two eyes in the depths
A#
My vision is supreme
Am
I see all things that can't be seen
A#
But not my hand held out in front of me
Am
The face that makes men freeze
A#
I now need not see at all
Am
I'll feel the presence of the Beast
A#
But will not need to stare him down no more
[Chorus]
F C Dm
I'll throw my eyes into the lake
F C Dm
So that I will see from within
F C Dm
I'll throw my eyes into the lake
F C A# Dm
And when blind I will still see
Am F G
At the bottom of the lake
Am F G Am
My two eyes will shine like the stars
Am F G
At the bottom of the lake

I will see no matter how near or far

At the bottom of the lake

My two eyes will shine like the stars

At the bottom of the lake
Cm G# A# Cm
I will see no matter how near or far
