One[D] summer evening drunk to hell I[Em] sat there nearly[G] lifeless, An[D] old man in the corner sang where the[G] water lilies[Em] grow, And[D] on the juke box Johnny sang[Em] about a thing called[G] love, And it's[D] how are you[Em] kid,[G]whats your[D] name, And[G] how would you bloody[Em] know. [2] In[D] blood and death 'neath the screaming sky, I[Em] lay down on the[G] ground, And the[D] arms and legs of other men, Were[G] scattered all a[Em]round, Some[D] cursed some prayed some[G] prayed then [D]cursed, Then[G] prayed and bled some[Em] more, And the[D] only thing that[Em] I could[G] see, Was a[D] pair of brown[Em] eyes that were[G] looking at [D]me, But when we got[Em] back labelled[G] parts one to[D] three, There was no[Em] pair of brown eyes[G] lookin at[D] me. And a rovin'a[Em] rovin'a[G] rovin'I'll[D] go, For a[G] pair of brown[Em] eyes. I looked at him he looked at me,all I could do was hate him, While Ray and Philomena sang of my elusive dreams, I saw the streams the rolling hils,where his brown eyes were waiting, And I thought about a pair of brown eyes that waited once for me. So drunk to hell I left the place sometimes crawling sometimes walking, A hungry sound came across the breeze so I gave the walls a talking. And I heard the sound of long ago,from the old canal, And the birds were whistling in the trees, Where the wind was gently laughing. And[D] a rovin,a[Em] rovin a[G] rovin I'll[D] go for a[G] pair of brown[D] eyes, For a[G] pair of brown[D] eyes. [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/c/christy-moore/277609.html ] |
