What a perfectly constructed song written by Bob Crewe and Kenny Nolan. It was 
originally recorded by The Four Seasons in early 1974 but released as a Frankie 
Valli solo song and topped the charts in 1975.  Besides the touching subject 
matter, it subliminally keeps our interest by continuously modulating up 1/2 step 
at a time.  Send Questions/comments to dougj1986[at]aol.com.   My apologies if the 
chord/words placement gets misaligned as I imported these notes from Word.

My Eyes Adored You

The intro guitar part uses '6ths' a la Van Morrison's BROWN EYED GIRL or Jim Croce's OPERATOR
