B F# B Sailing down behind the sun, C# E F# B Waiting for my prince to come. B E F# G#m Praying for the healing rain C# D A E To restore my soul again. C#m A F#m B Just a toe rag on the run. E A F#m B How did I get here? what have I done? When will all my hopes arise? How will I know him? When I look in my father's eyes C#m A F#m B (Look into my father's eyes) E A F#m My father's eyes B C#m When I look in my father's eyes C#m A F#m B (Look into my father's eyes) E A D My father's eyes Then the light begins to shine And I hear those ancient lullabies And as I watch this seedling grow Feel my heart start to overflow Where do I find the words to say? How do I teach him? What do we play? Bit by bit, I've realized That's when I need them That's when I need my father's eyes Chorus Then the jagged edge appears Through the distant clouds of tears I'm like a bridge that was washed away My foundations were made of clay As my soul slides down to die How could I lose him? What did I try? Bit by bit, I've realized That he was here with me I look into my father's eyes Chorus - x3 | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Ukulele Chord DiagramsA B C# C#m D E F# F#m G#m Here you can see detailed diagrams for each ukulele chord used in the song.
