Intro: G 

  
          G                              C 
I love to see cottonwoods blossom in the early spring 
          D                                G 
I love to see the message of love that the bluebird brings. 
           C       D                G              Em 
But when I see you walking with him down along the strand 
              C            D                 G 
I wish I were blind when I see you with your man. 
          G                                 C 
I love to see your hair shining in the long summer's light. 
          D                                   G 
I love to watch as stars fill the sky on a summer night. 
      C                   D 
Music plays, you take his hand, 
                G                         Em 
I watch how you touch him as you start to dance 
                  C            D                 G 
And I wish I were blind when I see you with your man. 

  
C                      D         G 
  We struggle here but all our love's in vain 
            C                                  D 
Well, these eyes that once filled me with your beauty 
    G            C         G C 
Now fill me with pain. 
C                       D 
And the light that once entered here 
   G                   Em 
Is banished from me. 
             C                         D 
Oh, and this darkness is all baby that my heart sees. 
                C 
And though this world is filled with the 
D                G                 Em 
Grace and beauty of God's hand, 
              C            D                 G 
I wish I were blind when I see you with your man.

Oh, I wish I were blind when I see you with your man.
