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] 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. Fill in your own chords and bass and hammer-ons and stuff...
