"EILEEN" - SKID ROW
(FROM THE ALBUM: "SUBHUMAN RACE")
(Affuso, Bach, Bolan, Snake)
NOTE: I'm a rhythm player so this is basically just the rhythm parts of
the song. It's not 100% correct, but the basics are here - so just
listen to the song for the correct strumming and rhythm.
Enjoy!

LYRICS:
V1:
There are things we cannot see
That hang within her sight
There are people we won't remember
That dance with her at night
CHORUS:
Eileen's calling me
To sit awhile and talk to trees
Eileen can't you see
The songs you sing are scaring me
Eileen, Eileen
V2:
She romances with the moon
Full and alone
It's really a street light
It's something we all know
V3:
There are things we cannot see
That hang within her sight
It's really a street light
It's something we all know
