St Lucys Eyes

Intro
Bm   G   A (x2)


Bm                                 G                 A
Things ain’t what they used to be, you act less like you than me
Bm                                     G              A
I never thought about it then, call it growing old or shedding skin
    Bm                              G            A
You place the target for the blame, like a camera taking aim
   Bm                        G                 A
It hits you like a sedative, when you hear the shutter click

Bm   G   A

Bm                                          G                   A
First you showed up with the key and said, “You should probably come with me.”
     Bm                               G             A
Next thing I knew I can’t recall what life was like before it all
Bm                                     G                 A
Then I’ll be the last to leave, nights getting drunk and losing speed
Continues after the ad
Bm                                  G                  A            Bm
I second guess the life I lead, but nothing else comes naturally to me


Chorus
      Bm  A   G   D       A           G
Saint Lucy’s eyes lead me through the dark
     G  G/F# Em        G   G/F#    Em             Bm
This life I lead, it’s not for the faint of heart

Bm   G   A

Bm                          G                      A
Shaking off a nervous dream, trying not to think of anything
Bm                             G                 A
I’m giving everything I’ve got just to scare the demons off
Bm                               G               A
I wander down the corridors, the housekeeping doing their chores
Bm                                 G                  A              Bm
I mumble something casually, cause nothing else comes naturally to me


Repeat Chorus


Bm                                    G               A
I close my eyes and try to breathe as I feel my chest tightening
Bm                             G                 A
Only I know where I’ve been, I refuse to let the silence in
Bm                                      G                A
My dreams are full of things I’ve seen, to the point and frightening
Bm                                 G                  A               Bm
I pray for daylight quietly, cause nothing else comes naturally to me


Repeat Chorus

Bm                                 G                 A
Things ain’t what they used to be, you act less like you than me
Bm                                  G                  A               Bm
I second guess the life I lead, but nothing else comes naturally to me
