Brown Eyed Girl

Van Morrison

 

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

 

Chorus:

D (3)

Do you remember when we used to sing

G                C             G                  D

Sha la la la  la la la la  la la la la te da   Just like that

G                C             G                  D            G    D

Sha la la la  la la la la  la la la la te   da    la te da

 

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

 

Second Chorus:

D (3)

Do you remember when we used to sing

G                C             G                  D

Sha la la la  la la la la  la la la la te da   Just like that

G                C             G                  D           

Sha la la la  la la la la  la la la la te   da   

G                C             G                  D           

Sha la la la  la la la la  la la la la te   da
