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