[E] [F#]
[G#m] He talks [F#] like Mickey [A] Mouse, and sees [E] with x-ray [G#m] eyes, lives in [F#] a cardboard [A] house.
I almost [E] gave him the prize, [B] till you [E] [B] came along.
[E] Thanks [B] for [E] opening [B] my eyes.
Did you do [E] [B] right or wrong?

Thanks for [E] opening [B] my eyes.
