Flash In Your Eyes
(A Song for Gene Eugene)
Capo @ 3rd fret
Em7 C Em7 D/F#
Once, we lit a candle in the cold dark street
Em7 C Am7 D
And hoped the world would one day, burst into flame
Em7 C Em7 D/F#
We spilled a cup of water there in the desert heat
Em7 C
And dreamed the earth was drenched
Am7 D
In the grace of that sweet rain
C G D
Now you're the catch in my throat
C G Em
Was I in your dream of last goodbyes?
Am Em
Now you're the thorn in my heart
Am Em
Was I a flash in your eyes?
Em7 C Em7 D/F#
Once, we pulled some angels from our magic hats
Em7 C Am7 D
Then we danced with them along the scenic routes
Em7 C Em7 D/F#
Here is the dreamroom where we left our tracks
Em7 C
And dared to imagine what it
Am7 D
All was all about
C G D
Now you're the catch in my throat
C G Em
Was I in your dream of last goodbyes?
Am Em
Now you're the thorn in my heart
Am Em
Was I a flash in your eyes?
Bridge:
And cohen was singing
"if it be your will"
And we heard him singing
"if it be your will"
Em7 C Em7 D/F#
Once, we painted pictures most the world would never see
Em7 C Am7 D
And hung them up on nails that held God's feet and hands
Em7 C Em7 D/F#
We built a playhouse in a fallen tree,
Em7 C
That you'd be first to leave
Am7 D
Was never in our plans
C G D
Now you're the catch in my throat
C G Em
Was I in your dream of last goodbyes?
Am Em
Now you're the thorn in my heart
Am Em
Was I a flash in your eyes?
Outro:
Feels like the late great's
Around us here (repeat)
