[Intro]
Em D C Em
[Verse 1]
Em D Well, I've walked these streets, a virtual stage it seemed to me C Em Make-up on their faces, actors took their places next to me Em D Well, I've walked these streets in a carnival of sights to see C Em All the cheap thrill seekers, the vendors and the dealers, they crowded around me
[Chorus]
G Have I been blind D Have I been lost inside myself and my own mind C Hypnotized, mesmerized Em By what my eyes have seen
[Verse 2]
Em D I've walked these streets in a spectacle of wealth and poverty C Em In the diamond market the scarlet welcome carpet that they just rolled out for me Em D And I've walked these streets in the madhouse asylum they can be C Em where a wild eyed misfit prophet on a traffic island stopped and he raved of saving me
[Chorus]
G Have I been blind D Have I been lost inside myself and my own mind C Hypnotized, mesmerized Em By what my eyes have seen G Have I been wrong D Have I been wise to shut my eyes and play along C Hypnotized, paralyzed Em By what my eyes have found C D By what my eyes have seen Em What they've seen

[Chorus 2/Outro]
G D C Have I been blind, have I been lost G D C Have I been wrong, have I been wise, have I been strong
Have I been?
G D Hypnotized, mesmerized C By what my eyes have found Em C D In that great street carnival G D C Have I been blind, have I been lost G D C Have I been wrong, have I been wise, have I been strong
Have I been?
G D Hypnotized, mesmerized C By what my eyes have found Em C D In that great street carnival Em In that carnival
