A pair of brown eyes

• G

	      G                             Am               C 
One summer evening drunk to hell I sat there nearly lifeless 
     G                                    C           Am 
An old man in the corner sang where the waterlilies grow 
     G                           Am                  C 
And on the jukebox Johnny sang about a thing called love 
          G           Am 
and it's how are you kid  
      C          G 
and whats your name  
     C                    Am 
and how would you bloody know 

      G                                   Am                  C 
In blood and death 'neath a screaming sky I lay down on the ground 
  G                                    C                Am 
And the arms and legs of other men were scattered all around 
   G                                       
Some cursed some prayed some prayed then cursed  
      C 
Then prayed and bled some more 
         G                      Am 
And the only thing that I could see  
        G             Am             C        G 
Was a pair of brown eyes that was looking at me 
     G             Am             C        G 
But when we got back labelled parts one to three 
        G             Am             C        G 
There was no pair of brown eyes waiting for me 
        G       Am       C           G 
And a rovin' a rovin' a rovin' I'll go 
        G       Am       C           G 
And a rovin' a rovin' a rovin' I'll go 
        G       Am       C           G 
And a rovin' a rovin' a rovin' I'll go 
        C             Am 
For a pair of brown eyes 
        C      D      G 
For a pair of brown eyes
