Through Your Eyes

G                                 
The scariest thing I ever heard, 
was a three-year-old mouth the 
       C                     
words, I want to be like you, 
        G  C G
someday
D                             C  
It got me to thinking that maybe 
                       G     C G
I should change my ways

[Verse 2]
G                                 
I’m watching every line because 
                    C              
they love to memorize, everything I
      G   C G
 say
D                          C    
I should probably watch the 
G    C G
words I sing

[Chorus]
Em         C                  G 
Ohhh, the innocence of a child
     C G

Em                C              
Never ashamed to let their 
                 G     C G
thoughts run wild
Em      C                 G     C G
Ohhh I wish I could be that kind
Em                                 
I wish I could see the world 
C                       G       C G
through your eyes

[Verse 3]
G                              
I love that childlike faith, the 
                                C  
kind that no one should take away, 
                    G          C G
I think I had, once before
D                          C 
Got me to thinking that maybe I 
                               G   
should pray a little more
      C G


[Chorus]
Em         C                  G 
Ohhh, the innocence of a child
     C G

Em                C              
Never ashamed to let their 
                 G     C G
thoughts run wild
Em      C                 G     C G
Ohhh I wish I could be that kind
Em                                 
I wish I could see the world 
C                       G       C G
through your eyes

[Verse 4]
G                                 
It’s a phone call when I am alone,
                          C        
 asking me, when I’m going to come 
      G       C G
home, again
D                  C             
Got me to thinking I need to 
                       G         C G
spend a little more time with them

[Chorus]
Em         C                  G 
Ohhh, the innocence of a child
     C G

Em                C              
Never ashamed to let their 
                 G     C G
thoughts run wild
Em      C                 G     C G
Ohhh I wish I could be that kind
Em                                 
I wish I could see the world 
C                       G       C G
through your eyes
Em                                 
I wish I could see the world 
C                       G       C G
through your eyes
