Am C G Am C G

I have seen it, I have seen it in my father's eyes,

I have heard it, I have heard it in my father's voice,

It's been a hard life, a hard fight,

Dm Am

And all of the things that he wanted are in his hand,

G F G Am

But silver would not betray what's written in the sand,

G Am

And a wall will not keep his people from the Promised Land,

C F G

And I will never believe that the same thing could happen to me,

C F G

And I will never believe I'll give up on the dreams that I see

In my father's eyes, my father's eyes,

I will go now, I will go now to my father's house,

I will show him, I will show him that I'm strong enough,

And there's a bright light, a great light that's shining around him

For now he has found a son,

G F G Am

Who will give to the world, the work he has begun,

G Am

Who will open the door to reveal the chosen one,

C F G

And I will never believe that the same thing could happen to me,

C F G

And I will never believe I'd give up on the dreams that I see,

In my father's eyes,

Am C G F G

Whooooooooooooo,

Am C G F

Whoooooooooo,

G Am

In my father's eyes, my father's eyes,

And I will never believe that the same thing is happening to me,

And I will never believe I'd give up on the dreams that I've seen,

In my father's eyes,

Am C G F G

Whooooooooooooo,

In my father's eyes, my father's eyes,

I have seen it, I have seen it in my father's eyes.
