[G#] Oh my freedom, baby, everything is all right, out of sight.
Baby, everything is [C#] all right, [G#] out of sight.
[C#] My poor man's son come across the railroad track,
only [C#] sugar on his hand on my back.
And the ending [G#m] of every [C#] single die,
on the top of [G#] my girl's eye.
[D#] We go out stepping on the town for a while,
[C#] money's flowing, my shoes are stuck.
But it's all right, my clothes [G#] aren't new.
Out of sight, [G#] because my heart is [C#] true.

[C#] She's a pearl of a girl, I guess that's [G#] what you might say.
[C#] I guess some folks [D#] brought her up that way.
The [C#] right sort of fright, she [G#m] was born [G#] and raised
in [C#] a great big old house full [G#] of fun, love and nature.
[C#] Said, no one's better than I.
I know I'm just an average guy,
no good for a hero or a smooth-drawn one.
Got empty pockets, you see, [G#m] I'm a poor man's [C#] son.
Can't give [G#m] her the things that money can [C#] buy,
but I never [G#m] think I could if I didn't.
[C#] It's all right, she's a king, dude.
Out of sight, because [G#] my heart is true.
She [C#] said, baby, [D#] everything is [C#] all right, out of sight.

Stephen, you know, the last time you were here,
you and I were about the same size.
You passed me.
That's [N] life.
You know what I'd like to ask you?
You have been [F] sightless since birth,
and we who are fortunate enough to be able to see
can sort of spend time with [A#] people
and kind of decide for ourselves whether or not they're good people,
whether we like them.
How do [G] you, being sightless, form an opinion [F] of someone?
Well, actually, I think by being blind, it helps.
Not that I want you to stick a pin in your [A] eye, you know.
[F] But, you see, sometimes you might judge a person
because of the way they look, and that's not very good.
At least, I don't feel it is.
You have to look at their personality, which is very important,
and a blind person has to pay very [Fm] close attention to
