The Who - Behind Blue Eyes: chords

E   B   Em                     G
       No one knows what it's like
           D                  C
To be the bad man, to be the sad man
   A
Behind blue eyes

 Em                     G
No one knows what it's like
       D            C
To be hated, to be fated
           A
To telling only lies

Chorus:
         C   D
But my dreams
               G
They aren't as empty
       C          D        E Esus4 E
As my conscience seems to be
        Bm          C
I have hours, only lonely
            D                      A
My love is vengeance that's never free

 Em                     G
No one knows what it's like
               D               C
To feel these feelings like I do
             A
And I blame you

 Em                   G
No one bites back as hard
         D                  C
On their anger, none of my pain and woe
            A
Can show through

Chorus:
         C   D
But my dreams
               G
They aren't as empty
       C          D        E Esus4 E
As my conscience seems to be
        Bm          C
I have hours, only lonely
            D                      A
My love is vengeance that's never free

E     Bm A  E     Bm A

E              Bm       A      E
When my fist clenches crack it open
E        Bm          G       D
Before I use it and lose my cool
        Bm    A            D
When I smile tell me some bad news
          Bm       A           E   Bm A
Before I laugh and act like a fool
E         Bm     A        E
And if I swallow anything evil
          Bm     G         D
Put your finger down my throat
          Bm            A          D
And if I shiver please give me a blanket
         Bm          A         E     Bm A
Keep me warm let me wear your coat

E     Bm A
B     G D   B     G D   B     G D

Em                      G
No one knows what it's like
           D
To be the bad man
           C
To be the sad man
   A
Behind blue eyes
