My Mothers Eyes Chords & Lyrics - Alec Benjamin

[INTRO]

[Am] [Em] [F] [C]

[VERSE 1]
[Em]I can't believe you [C]love me
After all the things i've [Am]done
[C]I think i've been the devil
Since the [Em]day that i've turned one

Like [F]when I stole your money

Just to buy a pack of gum
I [C]know it wasn't funny
[C]Can't believe I was so dumb

[PRE CHORUS]
I [Am]blame it on my age
But even now, I'm [Bm]not so young
I'm [Em]still stuck in my ways

I cant believe what I've become

Some[F]how, you feel the same
I guess that's motherly love [C]
Motherly [Em]love

[CHORUS]
[Am]Wish I could find the piece in me
[Em]To see the good things that you see
[F]It's not that [C]easy

But if I saw me through your [Am]eyes
Maybe I could find a [Em]way
To forgive all of the [F]lies
And the stupid things I [C]say

[Em]And if I could rea[Am]lize
That it's your blood that I [Em]bleed
Maybe I could love my[F]self
Like the way that you love [C]me

If I saw [Em]me through [C]your [Am]eyes
Your [Em]eyes
Through your [F]eyes
Through my [C]mother's [Em]eyes

[VERSE 2]
I can't [C]believe you love me
After all the things I've did[Am]
Like when I [Em]said I hated you when we were in Madrid
Like [F]when I didn't answer you cause I was on the road
But you [C]cooked my favorite dinner for me right [Em]when I get home

[PRE CHORUS]
[Am]I blame it on my stress
Cause I've been [Bm]feeling so high strung
I'm [Em]looking for excuses

And I know that isn't one

Some[F]how, you feel the same
I guess that's motherly love[C]
Motherly [Em]love

[CHORUS]
[Am]Wish I could find the piece in me
[Em]To see the good things that you see
[F]It's not that easy

[C] NC [Am]
But if I saw me through your eyes
Maybe I could find a [Em]way
To forgive all of the [F]lies
And the stupid things I [C]say

And if [Em]I c[C]ould realize
That it's your blood that I [Em]bleed
Maybe I could love [F]myself
Like the way that you love [C]me

[BRIDGE]
If I saw [Em]me through your [Am]eyes
Your [Em]eyes
Through your [F]eyes
[C]Through my mother's eyes
Through my [Bb]mot[C]her's eyes
[F]Through [C]my mother[G]'s eyes
Through my [C]mot[G]her's [Am]eyes

[Am] [F] [C]

[CHORUS]
[C]But if I saw me through your [Am]eyes
Maybe I could find a [Em]way
To forgive all of the [F]lies
And the stupid things I [C]say

And if [Em]I could rea[Am]lize
That it's your blood that I [Em]bleed
Maybe I could love my[F]self
Like the way that you love [C]me

If I [Em]saw me through your [Am]eyes
Your [Em]eyes
Through your [Am]eyes
[F]Through [C]my mother's [Em]eyes
