[Intro]
G5 G/B Em7 Csus2
G5 D Em7 Csus2
[Verse 1]
G5 She never really had a chance
D/F# On that fateful moonlit night
Em7 Sacrificed without a fight
Csus2 A victim of her circumstance
G5 Now that I've become aware
D/F# And I've exposed this tragedy
Em7 A sadness grows inside of me
Csus2 It all seems so unfair
[Chorus]
Em I'm learning all about my life
D By looking through her eyes
[Guitar Solo]
G5 G/B Em7 Csus2
[Verse 2]
G5 Just beyond the churchyard gates
D/F# Where the grass is overgrown
Em7 I saw the writing on her stone
Csus2 I felt like I would suffocate
G5 In loving memory of our child
D/F# So innocent, eyes open wide
Em7 I felt so empty as I cried
Csus2 Like part of me had died
[Chorus]
Em I'm learning all about my life
D By looking through her eyes
[Bridge]
Am And as her image
C Wandered through my head
G5 I wept just like a baby
D As I lay awake in bed
Am And I know what it's like
C To lose someone you love
Em And this felt just the same D
[Verse 3]
G She wasn't given any choice
D/F# Desperation stole her voice
I've beenEm given so much more in life
Csus2 I've got a son, I've got a wife
G5 I had to suffer one last time
D/F# To grieve for her and say goodbye
Em7 Relive the anguish of my past
Csus2 To find out who I was at last
[Chorus]
Em The door has opened Dwide
I'm turning with the Ctide
Am Looking through her eyes
[Outro]
