FI Cknow it's a bad idea
But how can I Dhelp myself?
DBeen inside for most this year
FAnd I thought a few Cdrinks, they might help
CIt's been a while, my dear
Dealin' with the Ccards life dealt
CI'm still holdin' back Fthese tears
FWhile my friends are somewhere Celse
CI pictured this year a little bit different, Gwedded in February
GI Amstep in the bar, it hit me so hard, oh, Fhow can it be this heavy?
FEvery Csong reminds me you're gone, and I feel Gthe lump form in Ammy throat
Am'Cause I'm here alone
Just dancin' with Cmy eyes closed
C'Cause Ameverywhere I look, I still see you
AmFAnd time Cis movin' so slow
CAnd I don't know Amwhat else that I can do
AmSo I'll Fkeep dancin' with Cmy

AmSo FI'll keep dancin' with my-
FCDelusion is here again
CAnd I think Amyou'll come home soon
AmA word brings me right back in
AmFThen it's only me that's in this room
FI Cguess I could just pretend
CThe colours are more than blue
CBut AmI lost more than my friend
AmI Fcan't help but missin' you (yeah, yeah, yeah)
CI pictured this month a little bit different, no one is ever ready
CAmAnd when it unfolds, you get in a hole, Foh, how can it be this Cheavy?
CEverything changes, nothing's the same, except the truth is Amnow you're gone
AmAnd life just Fgoes on
FSo I'm Cdancin' with my eyes closed
CG'Cause Ameverywhere I look, I still Fsee you
FAnd time is Cmovin' so slow
CAnd I Gdon't know Amwhat else that I can do

How to play Eyes Closed by Ed Sheeran on guitar

These are the sounding chords. With a capo on fret 2 you play F, C, D, G, Am, the shapes the player above shows.

The chart has four main chords: D, Bm, G and A. It also catches E in passing, and you can leave those out at first. Bm is a barre chord. The others are open shapes. The change you will play most is G to D, 19 times in the chart, so practise that one first.

Use the play-along above to follow each chord change in time with the music, or learn the shapes first with the chord diagrams below.
