Subject: Bruce Springsteen: I Wish I Were Blind
SPRINGSTEEN, BRUCE: I Wish I Were Blind
(from the "Human Touch" album)
NOTES:
Here's a relatively recent Boss tune that's simply awesome (from an
underrated album, IMHO). There's also a kick-ass version of this on
XXPlugged. All chord fingerings are standard. Like a lot of Bruce songs,
this is a fun one to sing and the chords are simple enough that you can jam
on it for a long time.
SONG:
G
Intro
Verse 1
I love to Gsee cottonwoods blossom in the Cearly spring
I love to Dsee the message of love that the Gbluebird brings.
But when I Csee you Dwalking with him Gdown along the Emstrand
I wish I were Cblind when I Dsee you with your Gman.
I love to Gsee your hair shining in the long Csummer's light.
I love to Dwatch as stars fill the sky on a sumGmer night.
Music Cplays, you take his Dhand,
I watch how you Gtouch him as you start to Emdance
And I wish I were Cblind when I Dsee you with your Gman.
CWe struggle here but Dall our love's in Gvain
Well, these Ceyes that once filled me with your Dbeauty
Now Gfill me with Cpain. G
CAnd the light that once Dcentered here
Is Gbanished from me. Em
Oh, and this Cdarkness is all baby that Dmy heart sees.
And though this Cworld is filled with the
DGrace and beauty Gof God's hand, Em
I wish I were Cblind when I Dsee you with your Gman.
<guitar solo>
We struggle here but all our love's in vain
Well, these eyes that once filled me with your beauty
Now fill me with pain.
And the light that once centered here
Is banished from me.
Oh, and this darkness is all baby that my heart sees.
And though this world is filled with the
Grace and beauty of God's hand,
I wish I were blind when I see you with your man.
Oh, I wish I were blind when I see you with your man.
Oh, I wish I were blind when I see you with your man.
(etc.)
I think I may have one or two of the chords off,
possibly around the first Em. Any comments/corrections
would be appreciated.
