Your Mothers Eyes(Chords)

	        C                             G7              C 
My children come sit here and hold to daddy's hands 

                                   D7           G7 
For I must tell you something that I don't understand 

F                               C             F 
Lately we've been living in the shadows of surprise 

      C                    G7               C 
Since I'm not the only man in your mother's eyes 


                              G7               C 
I can't say it's my fault and I won't say it's hers 

                                  D7                G7 
Cause I might have neglected when her need for me occurred 

F                            C       F 
But we're still a family and must realize 

     C                    G7               C 
That I'm not the only man in your mother's eyes 


F              G7          F           C 
No I'm not the only man in her eyes anymore 

    D7                     G7 
And soon she'll be leaving walking out the door 


    C                    G7            C 
And things won't be easy with her not around 

                                 D7                   G7 
And the shame that's now with us will be hard to live down 

F                        C                    F 
So children bear with me promise daddy you'll try 

      C                    G7               C 
Since I'm not the only man in your mother's eyes 

                           G7               F  C 
Since I'm not the only man in your mother's e-yes
