BEHIND BLUE EYES

Pete Townsend (The Who)

Intro

Esus
/ + + + + :| 4

Em G D Dsus 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 Dsus D
No one knows what it's like to be hated               
C A
To be fated, to telling only lies

C D G Gsus G
But my dreeeeeeeams, they aren't as empty                   
C D E Esus E
As my conscience seems to be               
Bm C
I have hours, only lonely
D A
My love is vengeance that's never free
A
    / + + + +

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

Bridge:

E E/^G E Bm A
|: / +  +  + + / + +      + + :| x 2 (4 x on Who's Last)

Em Bm A E
When my fist clenches crack it open
Bm G D
Before I use it and lose my cool
G A D
When I smile tell me some bad news
G A E
Before I laugh and act like a fool

E Bm A
/ + + + + / + +      + +

Bm A E
And if I swallow anything evil
Bm G D
Stick your finger down my throat
G A D
And if I shiver please give me a blanket
G A E
Keep me warm let me wear your coat

E Bm A

B A G/A D
|: / + + + + / +      +      + + :| x 3
B B/A

calm down!

Em G D Dsus D
No one knows what it's like, to be the bad man               
C A
To be the sad man, behind blue eyes
