DON'T IT MAKE MY BROWN EYES BLUE (Richard Leigh)
------------------------------------------------
[Each chord is half of a 4/4 measure]
C Am Dm7 G7 C Am Dm7 G7
[intro]
C Am Dm7 G7
Don't know when I've been so blue
C Am7 Bm7-5 E7
Don't know what's come over you
Am C/G D7/F# D7
You've found someone new
F Em7 F G7
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
F F/G C C
And don't it make my brown eyes blue
Am Em7 F C
Tell me no secrets, tell me some lies
Am Em7 F C
Give me no reasons, give me alibis
Am Em7 F C
Tell me you love me and don't let me cry
Dm7 Em F F/G
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
F Em7 F Em7
And don't it make my brown eyes, don't it make my brown eyes
F F/G C Am Dm7 G7
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.
