Verse 1
The eyes of a man
That can see what you can
Are the eyes that can see
Far beyond you and me
So we'll wait and we'll wait
Fmaj7#11 [133200] E
Until we are like he
Refrain 1
He sees the beauty in a flower
That you or I'd pass by
Tormented is his mind
But we've ignored the cries
Verse 2 [note extra lines]:
What is the world
To a man with no hands?
And what is the world
To a man with no ears?
And what is the world
To a man with no tongue?
To a man with all three
But who knows less than he
Refrain 2
He feels the world going round
Right beneath his feet
Sees the wealth of man
Struggling in his heat
Instrumental
fuzz bass and guitar duet over verse 1 chords)
Refrain 3
The frost of Autumn kills the flower
Held in his hand
Pity to lose him now
Summer is the man [end cold on B7]
