G                    D
Got my mother's eyes and my father's hair
       Em            Bm
Does anybody really care?
         C             D
It's gettin' cold out here
        G                    D
Well, I keep walkin' with my head held high
      Em           Bm
With my head to the sky
      C          G
With my mother's eyes


[DF RAIN]
        C9               G
And my mother's eyes are with me
         C9              G
In the darkness that's been paid for
  C9                 G                 D      D7
I'm just a nameless stranger, don't know why
       Em               Bm
Have I seen all that I could?
         Em               Bm C D7
Have I seen more than I should
                  G
With my mother's eyes?


[DF RAIN]
           C9            G
And my mother's eyes are with me
           C9            G
In the chilly winds of autumn
    C          D            Em          C
If I ain't here by winter, she'll know why
      Em           Bm
I've seen all that I dare
       Em            Bm
I've seen more than my share
   C             D                   G
Forgive me if I stare with my mother's eyes
