Eye Salve
JuJust G D7 G C
Way up high, upon the shelf, put away like something else
G
That you don’t want, oh, but how you need
D7 G C
It won’t expire, but you just might, if you don’t give your all to fight
G, Em, B7, A7 D7
The things you want, to find just what you need. Find what you need.
D7 G
Oh, weeping eyes that cannot see
C D7 C D7
Call to memory childhood scenes, when you believed.
C D7 G C D7 G
When you believed, when you believed. Hallelujah!
Oh the price and oh the pain, wrapped up in the need to gain
Everything you want
And think you need.
Cast away the filthy clothes of worldly cares and so disrobe
To find just what you want
Is what you need. Find what you need.
Oh, searching eyes and listening ears,
Lose the blindness of the years and just come and see
Just come and see. Just come and see. Just come and see. Hallelujah!
Paying everything to buy wisdom’s open, searching eyes
And learn to want
The very thing you need
All the darkness and the doubt were hiding secret pathways out
Now at last you’ll see
Where you could be. Where you can be.
Buy eye salve, oh you, wandering soul,
Find a different kind of gold that will not burn like blinding greed
C D7 C D7 G C D7 G
So you can see, you can see, you can see, you can see. Hallelujah!
