  [VERSE]
     E5             B5     (A5) E5    E  B5  A5
  He seems to be completely unreceptive 
      E5               B5     (A5)      E5  E    B5 A5
  The tests I gave him show no sense at all
      Ab7                            C#m       B B
  His eyes react to light, the dials detect it
     A*                              B7sus4   B5
  He hears but cannot answer to your call

    See me     Feel me      Touch me     Heal me

        E5                 B5   (A5) E5       B5 A5
  There is no chance, no untried operation
  E5                 B5     (A5)       E5     B5 A5
  All hope lies with him and none with me
   Ab7                               C#m        B B
  Imagine, though, the shock from isolation
          A                               B7sus4    B
  When he suddenly can hear and speak and see 
  
  [Repeat BRIDGE]
  See me, feel me, touch me, heal me
  See me, feel me, touch me, 
  
  |Em   Emadd9 |E              | B7sus4    | B           |
   heal me

  His eyes can see, his ears can hear, his lips speak
  All the time the needles flick and rock
  No machine can give the kind of stimulation
  Needed to remove his inner block

  I often wonder what he is feeling.
  Has he ever heard a word I've said?
  Look at him in the mirror dreaming.
  What is happening in his head?
  
               A    B         C      
  Listening to you, I get the music 
            A    B         E
  Gazing at you, I get the heat
            A    B           C         
  Following you, I climb the mountain  
          G        D       B    |B7sus4
  I get excitement at your feet.
               A    B         C          
  Right behind you, I see the millions  
     A    B         E
  On you, I see the glory
       A    B      C          
  From you, I get opinions  
       G    D         Bsus4     | B
  From you, I get the story

     Oooh, I wish I knew,      I wish I knew.
