[INTRO]
D#m | B | F# | C# 

[VERSE 1]
D#m                               B
   Looked down from a broken sky,   traced out by the city of lights
F#                            C#
   My world from a mile high,   best seat in the house tonight
D#m                                  B
   Touch down on the cold black-top,   hold on for the sudden stop
F#                                     B#
   Breathe in the familiar shock of confusion and chaos

[PRE-CHORUS]
D#m              B                G#m
All those people going somewhere, why have I never cared

[CHORUS 1]
             D#m                                    B
Give me your eyes for just one second, give me your eyes so I can see
     F#                                   C#  
Everything that I keep missing, give your love for humanity
             D#m
Give me your arms for the broken-hearted
                  B
The ones that are far beyond my reach
             F#
Give me Your heart for the ones forgotten
             C#
Give me Your eyes so I can see

[TURN]
D#m   B     F#    C#
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

[VERSE 2]
D#m                             B
   Step out on the busy street,   see a girl and our eyes meet
F#                                 C#
   Does her best to smile at me to hide what's underneath
D#m                                 B
   There's a man just to her right,   black suit and a bright red tie
F#                                   C#
   Too ashamed to tell his wife he's out of work, he's buying time

[PRE-CHORUS]

[CHORUS 1]

[TURN]

[BRIDGE]
B                                  F#
  I've been there a million times,    a couple million lives
B                           F#                         C#
  Just moving past me by, I swear I never thought that I was wrong
B                           F#
  But I wanna second glance   so give me a second chance
B                                F#               C3
  To see the way you've seen the people all along

[CHORUS 1]

[CHORUS 2]
             D#m                               
Give me your eyes (for just one second)
             B
Give me your eyes (so I can see)
     F#                                   
Everything (that I keep missing)
            C#
That I keep missing
             D#m
Give me your heart (for the broken-hearted)
               B
For the broken hearted (the ones that are far beyond my reach)
             F#
Give me Your heart (for the ones forgotten)
             C#
Give me Your eyes (so I can see)

[END]
D#m   B     F#    C#
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
D#m   B     F#    C#
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
