BEHIND BLUE EYES

The Who

Em G D

No one knows what it's like, to be the bad man,

C A

To be the sad man, behind blue eyes

Em G D

No one knows what it's like to be hated,

C A

To be fated, to telling only lies

CHORUS

C D G

But my dreams, they aren't as empty,

C D E

As my conscience seems to be

Bm C

I have hours, only lonely

D A

My love is vengeance that's never free

No one knows what it's like to feel these feelings

Like I do, and I blame you

No one bites back as hard on their anger

None of my pain and woe, can show through

CHORUS

D Bm A E

When my fist clenches crack it open

Bm G D

Before I use it and lose my cool

Bm A E

When I smile tell me some bad news

Bm A E

Before I laugh and act like a fool

And if I swallow anything evil

Stick your finger down my throat

If I shiver please give me a blanket

Keep me warm let me wear your coat

No one knows what it's like, to be the bad man

To be the sad man, behind blue eyes
