# Verse:
G C
Hey, where did we go
G D
Days when the rains came ?
G C
Down in the hollow
G D
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 with
G D
Our, our hearts a-thumping
C D G Em
And you, my brown-eyed girl,
C D G D
You, my brown-eyed girl.
G C
Whatever happened
G D
To Tuesday and so slow
G C
Going down to the old mine with a
G D
Transistor radio.
G C
Standing in the sunlight laughing
G D
Hide behind a rainbow's wall,
G C
Slipping and a-sliding
G D
All along the waterfall
C D G Em
With you, my brown-eyed girl,
C D G D
You, my brown-eyed girl.

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 about
G C
Making love in the green grass
G D
Behind the stadium
C D G Em
With you, my brown-eyed girl,
C D G D
You, my brown-eyed girl.
D G
Do you remember when we used to sing
C G D
Sha la la la la la la la la la la dee dah
Laying in the green grass
