Tired Eyes by Neil Young Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 1975

[Verse 1: Neil Young]
Well he shot four men in a cocaine deal
And they left them lyin' in an open field
Full of old cars with bullet holes in the mirrors
He tried to do his best but he could not

[Chorus: Neil Young with Ben Keith, Nils Lofgren & Ralph Molina]
Please take my advice
Please take my
Please take my advice
Open up the tired eyes
Open up the tired eyes

[Verse 2: Neil Young]
Well, it wasn't supposed to go down that way
But they burned his brother, you know
And they left him lying in the driveway
They let him down with nothing
He tried to do his best but he could not

[Chorus: Neil Young with Ben Keith, Nils Lofgren & Ralph Molina]
Please take my advice
Please take my advice
Please take my advice
Open up the tired eyes
Open up the tired eyes
[Verse 3: Neil Young]
Well tell me more, tell me more, tell me more
I mean was he a heavy doper or
Was he just a loser?
He was a friend of yours
What do you mean he had bullet holes in his mirrors?
He tried to do his best but he could not

[Chorus: Neil Young with Ben Keith, Nils Lofgren & Ralph Molina]
Please take my advice
Please take my advice
Please take my advice
Open up the tired eyes
Open up the tired eyes

[Harmonica Solo]

[Chorus: Neil Young with Ben Keith, Nils Lofgren & Ralph Molina]
Please take my advice
Please take my advice
Open up the tired eyes
Open up the tired eyes
