[Verse 1]
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
Laughing, and a running, hey, hey
G D
Skipping and a jumping
G C
In the misty morning fog,
G D C D G Em
with our hearts a thumpin’ and you, my brown eyed girl
C D G D
You, my brown eyed girl
[Verse 2]
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
Standing in the sunlight laughing
G D
Hiding behind a rainbow’s wall
G C
Slipping and a sliding
G D7
All along the waterfall
C D7 G Em
With you, my brown eyed girl
C D G D
You, my brown eyed girl

[Verse 3]
G C
So hard to find my way,
G D
Now that I’m all on my own
G C
I saw you just the other day,
G D
My how you have grown
G C
Cast my memory back there, Lord
G D
Sometime I’m overcome thinking ’bout
G C
Making love in the green grass
G D7 C
Behind the stadium with you
D7 G Em
My brown eyed girl
C D7 G D
You my brown eyed girl
[Bridge]
