Misc Musicals – Cabaret - If You Could See Her Through My Eyes (Guitar)

F#                 F#/C#   F#   F#/C#
I know what you're thinking?

    G#7/D#       G#7      G#7/D#  G#7
You wonder why I chose her

C#7    C#7/G#  C#7    C#/B   F#/A# Adim7 C#7/G#
Out of all the ladies in the world

D#/G   G#m            G#m/D#   G#m   G#m/D#
That's just a first impression?

     G#m              G#m/D#    G#m   G#m/D#
What good's a first impression, err?

       C#       G#m    C#sus4 C#
If you knew her like I do

G#m      C#          G#m      C#
It would change your point of view

B            Bmaj7/F#        B6     Bmaj7/F#
If you could see her through my eyes

B            B/D#   Ddim7 C#m7 F#7
You wouldn't wonder at    all

C#m7         C#m7/G#         C#m7   C#m7/G#
If you could see her through my eyes

C#m7    F#7           B    B/D# Ddim7 C#m7
I guarantee you would fall like I     did

B             Bmaj7/F# B6   Bmaj7/F#
When we're in public together

B        B7    E
I hear society groan

    C#7                           B/D# A7 G#7
But if they could see her through my   eyes

C#m7                  F#7 B
Maybe they'd leave us a-  lone

B     B/F#         F#7/C#                F#7
(spoken) There you arе my liebling, your favorite

B        B/F#   F#7/C#   F#7
Hoo, hoo

B         Bmaj7/F#     B6     Bmaj7/F#
How can I speak of hеr virtues?

B            B/D#   Ddim7 C#m7 F#7
I don't know where to begin:

      C#m7          C#m7/G#          C#m7   C#m7/G#
She's clever, she's smart, she reads music

C#m7        F#7            B   B/D# Ddim7 C#m7
She doesn't smoke or drink gin like I     do

B              Bmaj7/F#  B6   Bmaj7/F#
Yet when we're walking together

     B            B7          E
They sneer if I'm holding her hand

    C#7                           B/D# A7 G#7
But if they could see her through my   eyes

C#m7               F#7  B     C/E Ebdim7 Dm7
Maybe they'd all under- stand

Dm7            G7        C
Why can't they leave us alone?

C#              C#maj7/G#
Meine Damen und Herren, Mesdames et Messieurs

C#6    C#maj7/G#    C#       A#7
Ladies *giggle* and Gentlemen.

D#m7             D#m7/A#       D#m7                       D#m7/A#     D#m7
Is it a crime to fall in love? Can we ever tell where the heart truly leads us?

           D#m7/A#                   D#m7                     G#7
All we are asking is ein bisschen Verständnis - a little understanding.

                     C#                         N.C.
Why can't the world "Leben und Leben lassen" — "Live and Let live"?

C#     C#maj7/G#    C#6    C#maj7/G#
I understand your objection

  C#7                         F#    N.C.
I grant you the problem's not small

    D#7                          C#/G#  A#7
But if you could see her through my eyes...
