Brown Eyed Girl

Van Morrison

 
Looking for the real deal? There's a great note-for-note tab of "And It Stoned Me" in Van Morrison - Guitar Songbook. A five-star review at Sheet Music Plus says, "What I find more useful is that it includes guitar srumming patterns. Also the tabs to see the real chords. All in all, I just wish that all other songbooks where like this one.
Well done." And beginners will want to check out the highly-rated instructional book FastTrack Guitar Songbook 1 - Book 1, which features this song.  Comes with a CD.

Intro:  / G - - - / C - - - / G - - - / D - - - / (x2)

G                      C        G                     D

Hey, where did we go   days when the rain came

G                 C         G               D

Down in the hollow    playing a new game

G                       C                       G                      D

Laughing, and a running, hey, hey, Skipping and a jumping

G                  C              G              D                 

in the misty morning fog, with our hearts a thumpin' and

C   D                          G  Em    C     D                      G    D

you, my brown eyed girl          You, my brown eyed girl

G              C       G                           D

Whatever happened to Tuesday and so slow

G                        C                    G               D

Going down to the old mine with a transistor radio

G                     C                       G                      D

Standing in the sunlight laughing, hiding ‘hind a rainbow's wall

G                     C                      G                  D

Slipping and a sliding, hey, hey, All along the waterfall with

C   D                          G  Em    C     D                      G   

you, my brown eyed girl          You, my brown eyed girl

G              C                G                    D

So hard to find my way,  Now that I'm on my own

G              C                       G              D

I saw you just the other day, my, how you have grown

G              C                              G                       D

Cast my memory back there Lord. Sometimes I'm overcome thinkin' 'bout it

G                           C           G                  D

Makin' love in the green grass behind the stadium with

C   D                          G  Em    C     D                      G   

you, my brown eyed girl          You, my brown eyed girl
