[E] Hi, welcome back to 120 minutes.
I'm Robin Hitchcock and this is called One Long Pair of Eyes.
In the tower the lovers sighed.
Good tonight [A] [E] please take my eyes [A] I've used them.
[E] Doctor, doctor I'm on fire.
Oh I'm [B] sad [E] to hear that's why [A] we're closing.
[C#m] She snuffs [E] you out [A] like silk [C#m] and pours [E] you out [A] like milk.
But just before the dawn appears, draining all the blue away.
Just before all your [E] perspectives change.
[B] Isn't it strange?
[E]
On the black Fellini [A] sails, tattered rags that hangs [E] on nails.
[A]
Reminds me, you [E]
the mistress of your chair.
I [A] the sergeant of your [E] hair.
You [A]
blind me, [C#m] you turn [E] me on [A]
like [C#m]
a [B] liquid [E] silver [G]
[A] light.
That emanates inside of you, decorates the room around it.
Just before the curtains [G#m] park for dawn and [B]
[E] everything's gone.
She had one long pair of eyes.
[A] She had one long pair of eyes between [E] her.
One long pair of eyes so [A] she could see you.
[Em] [E]

[E]
On [A] the [E] Luigius shore, [B] lovers [E] weep forever [A] more in the evening.
[E] With the clouds above their beds, go back to their lonesome heads [A] and leave them.
[C#m] She falls [B] on [Em] you [A] like rain.
[C#m] When will [Em] she fall [A] again?
Oh just before the dawn appears, draining all the blue away.
Just before all your [G#m] perspectives die.
[B]
Didn't [E] you try?
She had one long pair of eyes.
She [A] had one long pair of eyes between her.
[E] One long pair of eyes.
Yes [A] she had one long pair of eyes between her.
