Tabbed from the recording from the American Folk Anthology (disc 2) [Chorus:] G D G D Those brown eyes I loved so well. Those brown eyes I long to see. D A D How I long for those brown eyes. Strangers they have grown to be. D A D Just a year ago today, when my brown eyes went away D A D Up in heaven I long to be, where a brown-eyed angel waits for me [Chorus] D A Last night I passed her on the street, I bowed my head 'cause I could not D speak D A D Another man was at her side, soon I thought she'd be his bride. [Chorus] Other versions of the song have slightly different lyrics, as stated below. [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/w/woody-guthrie/282092.html ] D A D One evening when the sun was low my brown eyes whispered, "I must go." D A D Not one second would she wait. She kissed my cheek and left my gate. [Chorus:] G D G D Those brown eyes I loved so well. Those brown eyes I long to see. D A D How I long for those brown eyes. Strangers they have grown to be. D A D One night I met her on the street. I tipped my hat but I could not speak. D A D Another man was by her side. Soon I thought she'd be his bride. [Chorus] D A D 'Twas just a year ago today, they laid my own brown eyes away. D A D Six long years for me she cried. It was her brother by her side. [Chorus]  |
