Lyrics and chords
E7 Am
Eyes of ecstacy, Always haunting me,
E7 Am
Always taunting me With your mystery!
Dm Am
Tell me tenderly, You belong to me
E7 Am
For eternity, Dark eyes, talk to me!
E7 Am
Eyes so dark and dear, Eyes of love and fear,
E7 Am
Beautiful and true, I'm in love with you,
Dm Am
Gleaming eyes of love, Like the stars above,
E7 Am
You stole my heart, May we never part,
E7 Am
Gypsy melody that has haunted me,
E7 Am
can't you set me free Of all memory
Dm Am
of the time that's waste of the path we traced
E7 Am
of the pain we taste so endlessly
Ukrainian poet Yevhen Hrebinka (1812-1848) composed the poem "Dark Eyes" in St. Petersburg, Russia, after falling in love with a dark-eyed beauty. The identity of the composer who set Hrebinka's words to music is not known.
