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