them are held for one beat/a quarter of a measure each.
Don't ask me how to play this.]

1. (Verse)
|: C F G A
Where your eyes don't go a filthy scarecrow waves his broomstick
Bb G Am F / G :|
arms and does a parody of each unconscious thing you do
when you turn around to look it's gone behind you - on its face
it's wearing your confused expression - where your eyes don't go
Chorus:
Ab Bb Cm Ab / Bb
Where your eyes don't go a part of you is hovering
Eb Fm Gm Ab / Bb
it's a nightmare that you'll never be discovering
Eb Eb+aug5 Eb+6 Eb+7
you're free to come and go or talk like Kurtis Blow
Ab Ab+6 Ab+maj7 Ab
but there's a pair of eyes in back of your head
2. (Repeat verse chords)
Every jumbled pile of person has a thinking part that
wonders what the part that isn't thinking isn't thinking of
should you worry when the skull head is in front of you - or
is it worse because it's always waiting - where your eyes don't go
(Chorus)
Instrumental (play twice):
