Yeah, I know it's a cheesy song, but I was having fun playing the
chords the other night, so I thought I'd post it. I don't even
remember who did this song back in the 70's. (So why dontcha put
it in the "Various_Artists" directory when you archive it, James.)
DON'T IT MAKE MY BROWN EYES BLUE (Richard Leigh)
------------------------------------------------
[Each chord is half of a 4/4 measure]
[intro]
Don't know when I've been so blue
-5
Don't know what's come over you
You've found someone new
And don't it make my brown eyes blue
I'll be fine when you're gone
I'll just cry all night long
Say it isn't true
And don't it make my brown eyes blue
Tell me no secrets, tell me some lies
Give me no reasons, give me alibis
Tell me you love me and don't let me cry
Say anything but don't say goodbye
I didn't mean to treat you bad
Didn't know just what I had
But honey now I do
And don't it make my brown eyes, don't it make my brown eyes
Don't it make my brown eyes blue.
[Repeat the last four measures for as long as you want, then end on C
or play the intro over and over and then end on C.]
Here's a little bit of tab for the intro; the spacing/timing is CORRECT.
