Golden Brown, texture like sun
Dm C6 Dm C6
Lays me down, with my mind she runs
Dm C6 Dm C6
Throughout the night, no need to fight
Dm C6 Dm C6
Never a frown with Golden Brown
Dm C6 Dm C6
Every time, just like the last
On the ship tied to the mast
To distant lands, takes both my hands
Never a frown with Golden Brown
Am Em F G6 Am Em F G6 Am Em F G6 Am Em G F
Dm C6 Dm C6
Golden Brown, fine a temptress
Through the ages she's heading west
>From far away, stays for a day
Never a frown with Golden Brown
Am Em F G6 Am Em F G6 Am Em F G6 Am Em G F
