Eyes Lyrics & Tabs by The 1861 Project
Eyes
guitar chords lyrics
I can see eternity from this hill
In the eyes of the men i have to kill
They'll be coming through those trees a thousand strong
and i know it's them or me when the day is done
and when the smoke clears and drifts up to the sky
and i'll wipe the blood and tears from my
eyes
eyes that look like home
eyes just like my own
eyes that have gone blind
eyes that look like mine
two years ago from ireland i came
landed in new bedford in the rain got drafted from a tavern in new york
into the fighting irish marching off to war
if i'd had 300$ i wouldn't have to see
landed in new bedford in the rain got drafted from a tavern in new york
into the fighting irish marching off to war
if i'd had 300$ i wouldn't have to see
all these fallen southern soldiers
staring back at me
()
and when i put my head down
and try to get some sleep
all that i can think about
all that i can see
()
