I Wish I Were Blind

G

[Verse]
          G                              C
I love to see cottonwoods blossom in the early spring
          D                                G
I love to see the message of love that the bluebird brings.
           C       D                G              Em
But when I see you walking with him down along the strand
              C            D                 G
I wish I were blind when I see you with your man.
          G                                 C
I love to see your hair shining in the long summer's light.
          D                                   G
I love to watch as stars fill the sky on a summer night.
      C                   D
Music plays, you take his hand,
                G                         Em
I watch how you touch him as you start to dance
                  C            D                 G
And I wish I were blind when I see you with your man.

[Chorus]
C                      D         G
  We struggle here but all our love's in vain
            C                                  D
Well, these eyes that once filled me with your beauty
    G            C         G C
Now fill me with pain.
C                       D
And the light that once entered here
   G                   Em
Is banished from me.
             C                         D
Oh, and this darkness is all baby that my heart sees.
                C
And though this world is filled with the
D                G                 Em
Grace and beauty of God's hand,
              C            D                 G
I wish I were blind when I see you with your man.

[Chorus]

Well, these eyes that once filled me with your beauty
    G            C         G C
Now fill me with pain.
C                       D

I wish I were blind when I see you with your man.

                    C           D                 G     Em
Oh, I wish I were blind when I see you with your man.
