Behind Blue Eyes The Who
Here's my version of the Who's "Behind Blue Eyes" for acoustic guitar.
I've given the chords - just listen to the song to put them where they
need to go - I like to use SUS chords in place of many Major and Minor
chords because it leaves the voicings open to interpretation - However,
you can replace my SUS chords with either Major or Minor chords, you'll
just need to see which works best for you (the original Who version has
dedicated Major or Minor chords) - it's a great song, so have fun.

[Intro] Em / G / D / Dsus4/ Cadd9/ Aadd9/
No one knows what it's like [Em] [G] [D] [Dsus] [Cadd9] [Asus2]
to be the bad man
to be the sad man
behind blue eyes
No one knows what it's like [Em] [G] [D] [Dsus4] [Cadd9] [Asus2]
to be hated
to be fated
to telling only lies
--------------------------------------------------
But my dreams [C] [D] [G]
they aren't as empty
as my conscience seems to be [C] [D] [E]
I have hours, only lonely [Bsus2] [C] [D] [Asus2]
my love is vengeance
thats never free
---------------------------------------------------
No one knows what it's like [Em] [G] [D] [Dsus4] [Cadd9] [Asus2]
to feel these feelings
like I do
and I blame you
No one bites back as hard [Em] [G] [D] [Dsus4] [Asus2]
on their anger
none of my pain and woe
can show through
----------------------------------------------------
But my dreams [C] [D] [G]
they aren't as empty
as my conscience seems to be [C] [D] [E]
I have hours, only lonely [Bsus2] [C] [D] [Asus2]
my love is vengeance
thats never free
----------------------------------------------------
[Bridge] E / Bsus2 / A /
When my fist clenches, crack it open [E] [Bsus2] [A]
Before I use it and loose my cool [E] [Bm] [G] [D]
When I smile, tell me some bad news [Bsus2] [A] [D]
Before I laugh and act like a fool [Bm] [A] [E] [Bsus2] [A]
And if I swallow anything evil [E] [Bsus2] [A]
Put your finger down my throat [E] [Bm] [G] [D]
And if I shiver, please give me a blanket [Bsus2] [A] [D]
Keep me warm, let me wear your coat [Bm] [A] [E] [Bsus2] [A]
[Bsus2] [Bsus2] [A] [D] (x3)
[Bsus2](hold)
----------------------------------------------------
No one knows what it's like [Em] [G] [D] [Dsus4] [Cadd9] [Asus2]
to be the bad man
to be the sad man
behind blue eyes
