[Intro]
C#
[Verse 1]
C# D
Oh, you know I have seen a sky without sun
C#
A man with no nation
C#
Saints captive in chains
D C#
A song with no name for lack of imagination
[Pre-Chorus]
D
Ya he, ya he, ya la he
C#
And I have seen darker than ebony
D
Ya he, ya he, ya la he
C# C#5 D5 C#5 B5 C#5
And now it seems that I, without your eyes, could never be
[Chorus]
C#
My one desire, all I aspire
Bm
Is in your eyes forever to live
C#
Traveled all over the seven oceans
Bm
There is nothing that I wouldn't give
C#
Came from Bahrein, got to Beirut
D
Looking for someone comparing to you
E D
Tearing down windows and doors
D/B
And I could not find eyes like yours
C#
Rabboussamai fikarrajaii
Bm
Fi ainaiha aralhayati
C#
Ati ilaika min haza lkaaouni
Bm
Arjouka labbi labbi nidai
C#
Came from Bahrein, got to Beirut
D
Looking for someone comparing to you
E D
Tearing down windows and doors
D/B C#
And I could not find eyes like yours
[Verse 2]
C# D
Oh, you know I seen a woman of means
C#
In rags and begging for pleasure
C# D
Crossed a river of salt just after I rode
C#
A ship that's sunk in the desert
[Pre-Chorus]
D
Ya he, ya he, ya la he
C#
And I have seen darker than ebony
D
Ya he, ya he, ya la he
