verse 1 That cold north wind is blowin',grey eyes you know The years are quickly going,grey eyes you know And the good life i promised you so long ago Is dead but for the dreaming,grey eyes you know verse 2(half a tone higher) We never had much money,grey eyes you know More rainy days than sunny,grey eyes you know And life has been a long hard row to hoe But you stuck right by me smiling,grey eyes you know Bridge Hard times took the blue from your eyes Leaving them grey,as the winter skies verse 3 We had our time i must walk away Leave you here beneath this mound of clay And i feel so empty as i turn to go Would my heart lie there beside you,grey eyes you know My heart lies there beside you,grey eyes you know
