[Verse]
Em
Looked down from a broken sky
C
Traced out by the city lights
G
My world from a mile high
D/F#
Best seat in the house tonight
Em
Touch down on the cold black-top
C
Hold on for the sudden stop
G
Breath in the familiar shock
D/F#          D
Of confusion and chaos
Em               C
All those people goin' somewhere
Am
Why have I never cared?
 
[Chorus]
Em
Give me your eyes for just one second
             C
Give me your eyes so I can see
       G
Everything that I keep missing
             D/F#
Give me your love for humanity
             Em
Give me your arms for the broken hearted
                  C
The ones that are far beyond my reach
             G
Give me your heart for the ones forgotten

[Verse]
Em
Step out on a busy street
C
See a girl and our eyes meet
G
Does her best to smile at me
D/F#
To hide what's underneath
Em
There's a man just to her right
C
Black suit and a bright red tie
G
Too ashamed to tell his wife
           D/F#
That he's out of work, he's buying time
Em               C
All those people going somewhere
Am
Why have I never cared?
 
[Chorus]
Em
Give me your eyes for just one second
             C
Give me your eyes so I can see

Everything that I keep missing

I've been there a million times

A couple of million lives

Just moving past me by

I swear I never thought that I was wrong
Em
Well I want a second glance
C
So give me a second chance
G                              D
To see the way you've seen the people all along

It sounds right when you play it with your guitar, but if you try playing it with the actual song you can tell it's not right. Maybe try adding a capo to the whole thing and it'll work.
