DREAM THEATER – THROUGH HER EYES

G
She never really had a chance
D
On that fateful moonlight night
G2
Sacrificed without a fight
G3
A victim of her circumstances
G
Now that I`ve become aware
D
And I`ve exposed this tragedy
G2
A sadness grows inside of me
G3
It all seems so unfair
G2
I`m learning all about my life
D
By looking through her eyes

G G2 G2 G3

G
Just beyond the churchyard gates
D
Where the grass is overgrown
G2
I saw her writing on her stone
G3
I felt like I would suffocate
G
Inloving memory of our child
D
So innocent, eyes open wide
G2
I felt so empty as I cried
G3
Like part of me had died
Am
And as her image
C
Wandered through my head

G
I wept just like a baby
D
As I lay awake in bed
Am
And I know what it`s like
C
To lose someone you love
G2                  D
And this felt just the same
G
She wasn`t given any choice
D
Desperation stole her voice
G2
I`ve been given so much more in life
G3
I`ve got a son, I`ve got a wife
G
I had to suffer one last time
D
To grieve for her and say goodbye
G2
Relive the anguish of my past
G3
To find out who I was at last
G2
The door has opened wide
D
I`m turning with the tide
C                                 Am
Looking through her eyes
