Cifras
A Pair Of Brown Eyes

                   C                                                             Dm                                 F 
        One summer's evening drunk as hell, I sat there nearly lifeless,
               C                                                                         Dm                         G 
        an old man in the corner sang, where the water lilies grow.
 C                                                               Dm                                   F 
        On the jukebox Johnny sang, about a thing called love.
 C                                 F           G                               C         F             Dm             F 
        "How are you kid?               What's your name? And what do you know?"
                     C                                                                         Dm                                 F 
        In blood and death 'neath a screaming sky, I lay down on the ground,
                   C                                                               Dm                         G 
        the arms and legs of other men, were scattered all around.
                     C 
        Some prayed and cursed, then cursed and prayed,
                   Dm                                       F 
        and then they prayed some more,
                         C         F             G                   C 
        but the only thing that I could see,
                       C                         F                           G                 C 
        was a pair of brown eyes they were looking at me.
             C                   G                         F                         C 
        When we got back, labeled parts one to three,
                               C                     G                 F 
        there was no pair of brown eyes waiting for me.
               C               F               G                   C 
And a rovin' a rovin' a rovin' I'll go,
               F     Dm               F                   Dm     G                 C 
for a pair of brown eyes, for a pair of brown eyes.
                 C                                                             Dm                               F 
        I looked at him, he looked at me, all I could do was hate him,
                       C                                                 Dm                     G 
        while Ray and Philomena sang, of my elusive dream.
               C 
        I saw the streams and the rolling hills,
                   Dm                                       F 
        where his brown eyes were waiting,
                         C             F           G               C 
        and I thought about a pair of brown eyes,
                     F         Dm             F               Dm           G             C 
        that waited once for me, that waited once for me.
                 C 
        So drunk as hell I left that place,
                             Dm                                     F 
        sometimes walking, sometimes crawling.
               C                                                                         Dm                             F 
        A hungry sound came on the breeze, so I gave the walls a talking.
                       C                                                             Dm                                     F 
        And I heard the sounds of long ago,                 from the old canal.
                           C                     F             G               C 
        And the birds were whistling in the trees,
                       F               Dm           F 
        as the wind was gently laughing.
               C               F               G                   C 
And a rovin' a rovin' a rovin' I'll go,
       C               G               F                   C 
a rovin' a rovin' a rovin' I'll go.
               C               G               F                   C 
And a rovin' a rovin' a rovin' I'll go,
               F     Dm               F                   Dm     G                 C 
for a pair of brown eyes, for a pair of brown eyes.
