G                  C
Hey, where did we go
G              D
Days when the rain came
G            C
Down in the hollow
G          D
Playin' a new game
G               C
Laughin' and a runnin', hey hey
G               D
Skippin' and a jumpin'
G             C
In the misty mornin' fog
G         D
With our hearts a thumpin'
     C D
And you
               G  Em
My brown eyed girl
C         D
And you, my
            G
Brown eyed girl

Whatever happened
To Tuesday and so slow?
Going down the old mine
With a transistor radio
Standing in the sunlight laughing
Hiding behind a rainbow's wall
Slipping and sliding
All along the waterfall, with you
My brown-eyed girl
You, my brown-eyed girl

Chorus:
D
Do you remember when we used to sing
G          C        G        D
Sha la la la la la la la te da just like that
G          C        G        D        G
Sha la la la la la la la te da la te da

So hard to find my way
Now that I'm all on my own
I saw you just the other day
My, how you have grown
Cast my memory back there, Lord
Sometimes I'm overcome thinking 'bout
Making love in the green grass
Behind the stadium with you
My brown-eyed girl
You, my brown-eyed girl

Do you remember when we used to sing
(Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-te-da)
Lyin' on the green grass
(Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-te-da-la-te-da)
Bit by bit by bit by bit by bit by bit
(Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-te-da-la-te-da)
