It's played in the Key of G with 4/4 Time Signature.
Here's the first chart I found online.
G* Everybody's waiting D* Everybody's watching Em* Even when you're sleepin' C* G D Em C Keep your ey-eyes open G The tricky thing D Is yesterday we were just, children Em Playing soldiers just pre-tending C Dreaming dreams with happy endings G In backyards, D Winning battles with the, wooden swords Em But now we've stepped into a, cruel world C Where everybody stands and, keeps score D Keep your eyes open G Everybody's waiting for you to breakdown D Everybody's watching to see the fallout Em Even when you're sleepin', sleepin' C G Keep your ey-eyes open D Em Keep your ey-eyes open C -mute G Keep your ey-eyes open G So here you are D Two steps ahead and staying, on guard Em Every lesson forms a, new scar C They never thought you'd make it, this far G But turn around D Oh, they surrounded you, it's, a showdown Em And nobody comes to save you now C But you got something they don't Yeah, you got something they don't D You just gotta keep your eyes open G Everybody's waiting for you to breakdown D Everybody's watching to see the fallout Em Even when you're sleepin', sleepin' C G Keep your ey-eyes open D Em Keep your ey-eyes open C Keep your ey-eyes D Keep your feet ready Em Heartbeat steady C D Keep your ey-eyes open Em Keep your aim locked C The night grows dark G D Ke-ep your ey-eyes open G Keep your ey-eyes open D Keep your ey-eyes open Em Keep your ey-eyes open C Keep your ey-eyes open G Everybody's waiting for you to breakdown D Everybody's watching to see the fallout Em Even when you're sleepin', sleepin' C G Keep your ey-eyes open D (Keep your ey-eyes open) Em Keep your ey-eyes open C (Keep your ey-eyes open) G-once Keep your ey-eyes openO.k., If you're a huge fan of Taylor's, you'll want to see the chords to
