#1.
E A
I saw her and told myself she was my dream come
true.
E B
Let my eyes deceive me from the start.
E A
They told me I wanted her more than I wanted you.
E B E
Guess my eyes were bigger than my heart.
CHORUS:
E A
Wasn't I the foolish one, Lord above what have
I done?
E B E
For her love I tore our world apart, now, she's
A
here but it's no good, I don't care the way I
should.
E B E
Guess my eyes were bigger than my heart.
#2.
E A
I allowed these eyes of mine to lead me into sin.
E B
Made me think that I could love her true.
E A
Now, she stands out in the cold, my heart won't
let her in.
E B E
There was only room enough for you.
CHORUS:
E A
Wasn't I the foolish one, Lord above what have
I done?
E B
For her love I tore our world apart.
E A
Now, she's here but it's no good, I don't care
the way I should.
E B E
Guess my eyes were bigger than my heart.
