[C]
One [G] summer evening drunk to hell, I [Am] sat there nearly [C] lifeless
An [G] old man in the corner sang "Where the [C] Water Lilies [Am] Grow"
And [G] on the jukebox Johnny sang a-[Am]bout a thing called [C] love
And it's [G] how are you [Am] kid and [C] what's your [G] name
And [C] how would you bloody [Am] know?
In [G] blood and death 'neath a screaming sky I [Am] lay down on the [C] ground
And the [G] arms and legs of other men were [C] scattered all a-[Am]round
Some [G] cursed, some prayed, some prayed then cursed, then [Am] prayed and bled some [C] more
And the [G] only [Am] thing that [C] I could [G] see
Was a [G] pair of brown [Am] eyes that was [C] looking at [G] me
But [G] when we got [Am] back, labeled [C] parts one to [G] three
There was [G] no pair of [Am] brown eyes [C] waiting for [G] me
And a [G] rovin', a [Am] rovin', a [C] rovin' I'll [G] go
For a [C] pair of brown [Am] eyes
[C] [C] [C] [Am] x2
I [G] looked at him, he looked at me, all [Am] I could do was [C] hate him
While [G] Ray and Philomena sang of [C] my elusive [Am] dream
I [G] saw the streams, the rolling hills where [Am] his brown eyes were [C] waiting
And I [G] thought a-[Am]bout a [C] pair of brown [G] eyes
that [C] waited once for [Am] me
So [G] drunk to hell I left the place, sometimes [Am] crawling, sometimes [C] walking
A [G] hungry sound came across the breeze so I [C] gave the walls a [Am] talking
And I [G] heard the sounds of long ago [Am] from the old [C] canal
And the [G] birds were [Am] whistling [C] in the [G] trees
Where the [C] wind was gently [Am] laughing
And a [G] rovin', a [Am] rovin', a [C] rovin' I'll [G] go
And a [G] rovin', a [Am] rovin', a [C] rovin' I'll [G] go
And a [G] rovin', a [Am] rovin', a [C] rovin' I'll [G] go
For a [C] pair of brown [Am] eyes
{c: Fade to end}
And a [G] rovin', a [Am] rovin', a [C] rovin' I'll [G] go
And a [G] rovin', a [Am] rovin', a [C] rovin' I'll [G] go
And a [G] rovin', a [Am] rovin', a [C] rovin' I'll [G] go
For a [C] pair of brown [Am] eyes
For a [C] pair of [D] brown [G] eyes
