Behind Blue Eyes
----------------
(Townshend)

  INTRO: A, A9 stuff

Em                     G
No one knows what it's like
          D
To be the bad man
          C9
To be the sad man
A
Behind blue eyes

No one knows what it's like
To be hated
To be fated
To telling only lies

       C
But my dreams
     D         G
They aren't as empty
      C          D        E
As my conscience seems to be

       Bm?         C
I have hours, only lonely
           D
My love is vengeance
             A
That's never free

No one knows what it's like
To feel these feelings
Like I do
And I blame you

No one bites back as hard
On their anger
None of my pain and woe
Can show through

But my dreams
They aren't as empty
As my conscience seems to be

I have hours, only lonely
My love is vengeance
That's never free

When my fist clenches, crack it open
Before I use it and lose my cool
When I smile, tell me some bad news
Before I laugh and act like a fool

  INSTR BREAK: (E  Bm  A) repeat

E    Bm      A        E
If I swallow anything evil
         Bm     G       D
Put your finger down my throat
     Bm             A         D
If I shiver, please give me a blanket
        Bm           A         E
Keep me warm, let me wear your coat

  INSTR: (E  Bm  A)
         B    A  G  D   (B    )
         |||  |  |  ||  (|||||)

No one knows what it's like
To be the bad man
To be the sad man
Behind blue eyes
