Dads Eyes

Valley Park, Mo
Key D..Banjo tuned to E …Moderate to slow
(D) Steel blue eyes
And coal-black (A) hair
Not large in size
But strong as a (D) bear
His eyes could cut right thru (D) you
Or soften to corn-flower (A) blue
Reflecting, and under- standing
And caring……(D) too
Late (G) in life, the cataracts (D) came
Primitive methods took his lenses (A) too
Replaced by thick glasses, what a shame
No more eyes of (D) blue
Dad told me in last few (D) days
He had been to earths edge, and I (A) knew
As he whispered those words,
I saw, once again those eyes of (D) blue
I saw, once again (A) those eyes of (D) blue
