Eyes On the Prize Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Am]Reach out,[G]
it could be [C]better than [D]a fantasy
[Am]I keep my eyes on the pr[G]ize, baby
I keep my eyes on the prize, [Am]baby

[Verse 2]
I got my [Am]levels out of place last [G]night
It was a long one
Lookin' for a quick fix,
lookin' for a shortcut
But [Am]if I want a game plan
[G]up for a long run
What do I bring to the table, said dumb luck
[Am]There's a good chance
the [G]last thing I pick up
Will show up in my sleep and crash
all my dreams
With some [Am]shit I wanna be
'cause it's [G]not what I battle
Some heaviness and pettiness and some

[Verse 3]
things that I'm ashamed of
[Am]When I think [G]of you (when I think of you)
I think of us (I think [Am]of us)
I think I'm [C]done with [G]this (how
fuckin' high [Am]ain't us?)
October [G]comes and I'll show
you what I'm made of
[Am]I hope it's harv[G]est time
For my fruits of la[C]bour

[Verse 4]
[Am]Reac[G]h out,
you got [C]the ribbon right in front [G]of you
[Em]I ke[Am]ep my eyes on the prize, [G]baby
I [Em]keep my eyes on the [G]prize, [Am]baby
Reach out[G], it could be b[C]etter
than [D]a fantasy[Am]
I keep my eyes on the [Ebaug]prize, ba[G]by
[Em]I keep my eyes on the pr[D]ize, baby

[Verse 5]
I was re[Am]peating conversations with the
[G]chip on my shoulder
Replaying the scene, over and over
[Am]I got confused and the
[G]world started spinnin
Said I'm out of touch,
buddy I've gone missin'
[Am]'Cause Lord knows I've been
[G]through the ringer
And Lord knows I'm
coming out swingin'
[Am]It's mid July in [G]New York City
I've been sitting in Coach,
but I'm ready for the big [Am]leagues
[G]Reach out, you got the rib

[Verse 6]
[C]
bon right in front [G]of you
[Em]I ke[Am]ep my eyes on the prize, [G]baby
[Em]I keep my eyes on the priz[G]e, baby[Am]
Reach out[Bm],
it [G]could be [C]better than [D]a fantasy[Am]
I keep my [G]eyes on the [Ebaug]prize, ba[G]by
[Em]I keep my eyes on the pr[D]ize, baby

[Verse 7]
Got me singing [Am]ayy-o[G] hh (g[C]ot me singing
[Dsus4]ayy-ohh)[D]
Got me singing [Am]ayy-o[G] hh
[Em](got me singing [G]ayy-ohh)
Got me singing [Am]ayy-o[G] hh (g[C]ot me singing
[G]ayy-ohh)
[Am]Got me singing [G]ayy-ohh (got me
[Em]singing [G]ayy-ohh)

[Verse 8]
[C]Those bodega light[G]s at [C]3 am
For the rest and the bright
[G]Just like a movie set
And Jules was dancin',
lit up an imaginary [C]cigarette
You said, "man,
why you feelin' sorry for your[G]self"
And the man [D]beyond the [Em]counter,
you turn up that [C]radio
[D]One of tho[Am]se old AM [G]FM boomboxes, the
kind [Em]with the [Bm]cass[G]ettes
You said something that I
[Em]won't [Am]forget[D]
You just keep mov[Em]in', [G]mov[Am]in'
[D]You just keep movin'[Am], mov[D]in'[Em][Am]
[D]You just keep mov[G]in'[D]
You just keep movin'

[Verse 9]
Oh we've medit[Am]ated on this
and [G]we've prayed on this
I've [Am]tried both be[G]fore
Seemed [Am]like the perfect day
[G]to take a leap of faith
[D]But I came up short
Are you [Am]listening close?
Start [G]listening close
And tell [Am]me your true desi[G]re
I know [Am]it's played so many
mean [G]tricks before
But I prom[D]ise [Em]the body don't lie,
come [G]on

[Verse 10]
[Am]Reach out,[Bm]
you [G]got [C]the ribbon right in front [D]of you
[Am]I keep my eyes on the pr[G]ize, baby
I keep [Em]my eyes on the pr[D]ize, b[Am]aby
Reach out[Bm],
it [G]could be [C]better than [D]a fantasy
[G]I keep [Am]my eyes on th[G]e prize, baby
[Em]I keep my eyes on the pr[D]ize, baby

[Verse 11]
Got me singing [Am]ayy-o[G] hh (g[C]ot me singing
[D]ayy[Em]-ohh)
Got me singing [Am]ayy-o[G] hh
(got me [Em]singing [G]ayy-ohh)
Got me singing [Am]ayy-o[G] hh (g[C]ot me singing
[D]ayy[G]-ohh)
[Am]Got me singing [G]ayy-ohh
(got me singing ayy-ohh)
[Em][G]
