Open Up My Eager Eyes
Filed under Sound Trip
Thanks to Mec for the Mr. Brightside MP3. In Rock Star: INXS, Marty Casey sang this song. I was listening to it earlier and it’s one of those good Last Song Syndromes that I’ve had. Good LSS’s are a rare experience for me. And such rare experiences would bring me to Google to search for the chords and lyrics of Mr. Brightside. Luckily, I found one from Ultimate Guitar. I was not able to test these set of chords because I could not find my capo. However, I tried my best to use my pointing finger as a capo to check if it sounds alike Mr. Brightside. By the way, a certain part of this song reminds me of a certain Dashboard Confessional song (not the sound but more on the message of the song). Read more for the lyrics and chords.
MR. BRIGHTSIDE
by the Killers
( CAPO 1st Fret )
C C/B F ( x 2 )
C C/B
Coming out of my cage
F
And I've been doing just fine
Gotta gotta be down
C
Because I want it all
C C/B
It started out with a kiss
F
How did it end up like this?
It was only a kiss
C
It was only a kiss
C/B
Now I'm falling asleep
F
And she's calling a cab
While he's having a smoke
C
And she's taking the drag
C/B
Now they're going to bed
F
And my stomach is sick
And it's all in my head
Am
But she's touching his chest now
G
He takes off her dress now
F
Let me go
Am
And I just can't look
G
It's killing me
F
And taking control
C
Jealousy
F Am
Turning saints into the sea
G C
Turning (swimming) through sick lullaby
F Am
Joking on your alibi
G C
But it's just the price I pay
F Am
Destiny is calling me
G C F
Open up my eager eyes
Am G
I'm Mr. Brightside
C F Am G ( x 4 )
( Repeat from start )
I never
C F Am G ( repeat )
