[Chorus:]
G D G DThose brown eyes I loved so well. Those brown eyes I long to see.
D A DHow I long for those brown eyes. Strangers they have grown to be.
D A DJust a year ago today, when my brown eyes went away
D A DUp in heaven I long to be, where a brown-eyed angel waits for me

D A Last night I passed her on the street, I bowed my head 'cause I could not
Dspeak
D A D Another man was at her side, soon I thought she'd be his bride.
