D5                  D5                 G5             E5
We stood there in the courthouse room so close but far apart
    A5                 A5           D5                A5
You brought along the lawyer and I brought a broken heart
    D5                    D5                G5             E5
The judge pronounced the words the way you wanted him to do
    A5                                         A5                 D5     D5
You changed your name from Brown to Jones and mine from Brown to Blue


  G5                                   D5                D5
I couldn't help my tears from falling on the courtroom floor
   G5                                D5           A5  A5
My love, they took away my right to love you anymore
   D5                    D5              G5                 E5
My world just seemed to stop as I stood there so close to you
    A5                                         A5                 D5     A5
You changed your name from Brown to Jones and mine from Brown to Blue

    D5               D5              G5            E5
The judge forgot to tell me how I'd live my life alone
     A5              A5            D5             A5
What I would do without you after loving you so long
   D5              D5            G5                  E5
He didn't seem to care that I'm still in love with you
    A5                                     A5                     D5    D5
You changed your name from Brown to Jones and mine from Brown to Blue

G5                                     D5                D5
I couldn't help my tears from falling on the courtroom floor
   G5                                D5        A5    A5
My love, they took away my right to love you anymore
   D5                    D5              G5                 E5
My world just seemed to stop as I stood there so close to you
    A5                                         A5                 G5  D5
You changed your name from Brown to Jones and mine from Brown to Blue
