A C#m D E
(3…4) Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
A C#m D E
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
[Verse]
A C#m
The demands made upon you
D E
are hard to live up to
A C#m D E
It's futile to try and deny
A C#m
And the things you hold dearly
D E
Are scoffed at and yearly
A C#m E
Judged once and then left aside
[Chorus]
D
Cause they're blind
B7 D
They hold you too close to the light
B7
And I see what they
A C#m
Only might if they'd learn
Bm E
but they're letting you burn
A
Cause they're blind
C#m D E
(Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh)
[Verse]
A C#m
To the brown-eyed beholder
D E
See the chip on your shoulder
A C#m D E
The fools ever want to believe
A C#m
that you're so hard to talk to
D E
And so easy to read through
A C#m E
Yet nobody looks past your sleeve
[Chorus]
D
Cause they're blind
B7 D
They hold you too close to the light
B7
And I see what they
A C#m
only might if they learn
D E
but they're letting you burn
A C#m D E
Cause they're blind
[Bridge]
D
They only like what they can see
D
And what they can’t, they just can't agree
A A7
If you'll run to me, run, run
D
Only like a day with her
D
Only like a date with her
G
Then you'll run back
E A
Then you'll run back blind
[Solo]
A C#m D E A C#m D E
A C#m D E A C#m E E
[Chorus]
D
Cause they're blind
B7 D
They hold you too close to the light
B7
And I see what they
A C#m
Only might if they'd learn
D E
but they're letting you burn
A A
Cause they're blind
[Bridge]
D
An old man said to me
D
Go home and take it easily
A A7
And run to me, run, run
D
Only like a date with her
D
Only one more day with her
G
Then I’ll run back
E D
Then we’ll run back Blind
B7 D
They hold you too close to the light
B7
And I see what they
A C#m
only might if they learn
D E
but they're letting us burn
A C#m D E
Cause they're blind
