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