In Your Eyes . . . Peter Gabriel

(Transposed from Bm)

  Am  C  F  C                         v       ^                                  
  Love I get so lost, sometimes . . . days pass and this emptiness fills my heart
                         ^  ^
   When I want to run away . . . I drive off in my car
                        ^   ^
   But whichever way I go, I come back to the place you are

  G  C  F  C
  All my instincts, they return . . . and the grand façade, so soon will burn
   Without a noise, without my pride . . . I reach out from the inside

  D G C G
 in your eyes      the light the heat
  in your eyes      I am complete
  in your eyes      I see the doorway....
  in your eyes      to a thousand churches
  in your eyes      the resolution....
  in your eyes      of all the fruitless searches
  in your eyes      oh, I see the light and the heat
  in your eyes      oh, I want to be that complete
  I want to touch the light the heat I see in your eyes   
                         (2 measures percussion)

  Am  C  F  C 
  Love, I don't like to see so much pain
   So much wasted and this moment keeps slipping away
              ^    ^
   I get so tired of working so hard for our survival
   I look to the time with you, to keep me awake and alive
  
  G  C  F  C
  All my instincts, they return . . . and the grand façade, so soon will burn
   Without a noise, without my pride . . . I reach out from the inside
