Yeah, I know it's a cheesy song, but I was having fun playing the
chords the other night, so I thought I'd post it.  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...
