Capo 1st fret
Standard (EADGBE)
Intro
/ A - - - / - - - - / G - - - / C - - - / x2
I saw her, yeah I saw her
With a black tongue tied round the roses
A fist pounding on a vending machine
Toy diamond ring stuck on her finger
With a noose she could hang from the sun
And point it out with the dark sunglasses
Walking crooked down the beach
She spits in the sand where their bones are bleaching
Chorus
And I know I'm gonna steal her eye--she doesn't even know it's wrong
And you know I'm gonna make it die--take her where her soul belongs
I know I'm gonna steal her eye-- nothing that I wouldn't try
Hey my sun-eyed girl
Hey my sun-eyed girl
My sun-eyed girl
Hey my sun-eyed girl
I saw her, yeah I saw her
With her hands tied back, her rags are burnin'
Calling out from a land-filled life
Scrawling her name upon the ceiling
Throw a coin in the fountain of dust
White noise, her ears are ringing
Got a ticket for my midnight hanging
Throw a bullet from a freight train leaving
Chorus
Hey my sun-eyed girl
Hey my sun-eyed girl
My sun-eyed girl
Hey my sun-eyed girl
Hey my sun-eyed girl
Hey my sun-eyed girl
My sun-eyed girl
Hey my sun-eyed girl
