Brown Eyed Girl by Van Morrison

Verse 1

[G] Hey where did [C]we go,

[G] Days when the [D]rains came

[G] Down in the [C]hollow,

[G] Playin’ a [D]new game

[G] Laughing, and a [C]running, hey, hey,

[G] Skipping and a [D]jumping

[G] In the misty [C]morning fog, with

[G] our hearts a [D]thumpin’ and [C]you,

Chorus

[D] My brown eyed [G]girl, [Em]

[C] You’re my [D]brown eyed [G]girl. [D7]

Verse 2

[G] Whatever [C]happened

[G] To Tuesday, it’s [D]so slow

[G] Going down to the [C]old mine with a

[G] transistor [D]radio

[G] Standing in the [C]sunlight laughing,

[G] Hiding behind a [D]rainbow’s wall

[G] Slipping and a [C]slidin’,

[G] All along the [D]waterfall with [C]you,

Chorus

[D] My brown eyed [G]girl, [Em]

[C] You’re my [D]brown-eyed [G]girl.

[D7] Do you remember when we used to [G]sing,

[G] Sha la la la [C]la la la la [G]la la la la te [D]da (Just like that)

[G] Sha la la la [C]la la la la [G]la la la la te [D]da, la te [G]da

Verse 3

[G] So hard to [C]find my way,

[G] Now that I'm [D]on my own

[G] I saw you just the [C]other day,

[G] My, how [D]you have grown

[G] Cast my memory [C]back there Lord.

[G] Sometimes I'm [D]overcome thinkin’ about

[G] Making love in the [C]green grass

[G] Behind the [D]stadium with [C]you

Chorus

[D] My brown eyed [G]girl, [Em]

[C] A- you’re [D]my brown eyed [G]girl.

[D7] Do you remember when we used to [G]sing,

[G] Sha la la la [C]la la la la [G]la la la la te [D]da

[G] Sha la la la [C]la la la la [G]la la la la te [D]da

[G] Sha la la la [C]la la la la [G]la la la la te [D]da. [G]
