Chords for Jimmy Webb When Can Brown Begin

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[D] This is a [Ab] new song.
Actually, this is a song that I wrote here in [Eb] London also [Ab] that [F] you probably haven't heard.
And [Fm] I hope that you'll listen to it as though you had heard it before.
[Cm] _
_ [F] _ _ I wrote this on a houseboat on the Thames [Eb] River. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ Some [Ab] folks say _ [Gm] the world [Bb] _ _ _ [Eb] _
_ [Bb] ain't never [Gm] gonna _ [Eb] change.
[Ab] _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Ab] _ _ To my [Eb] mind it's always _ [Ab] _ seemed a little [Fm] strange
[F] that _ [Fm] _ _ [Db] _
people won't [Ab] do the things they know they ought [Eb] to.
_ _ _ _ [Ab] _
_ _ Some [Gm] folks say the [Eb] world [Ab] ain't never gonna [Fm] change. _
_ _ [C] But in my [Db] heart I _ [Bb] believe, [Ab] _ _ _ _ baby, [Gm] we got to.
[F] Oh, we [Db] can't afford not [Eb] to.
[Ab] The daytime's bright and [Gm] nighttime's wonderful
[C] and _ [Ab] twilight never really [Eb] brings them to heaven. _
[Ab] _ White is right [G] and black is _ [Gm] beautiful, [Cm] Lord.
_ _ Where [F] does brown [Fm] begin?
_ Tell [F] me, people, [Ab] where does [Eb] brown [Bb] _ _ _ [Ab] begin?
_ _ _ Fire and [G] _ _ _
_ [Ab] ice, and so they _ [Fm] say.
_ [C] But [Db] I've seen the steam [Bb] clouds _ [Ab] _ floating high and [Gm] free.
_ _ _ _ [Fm] _ _ _
Salt and [Eb] pepper don't get _ [Ab]
in each other's way.
You know, [C]
they just [Db] cook together.
_ [Ab] _ _
And when they don't [Gm] agree, _ [F] they just [Db] let each other be.
_ [Ab] The daytime's bright and [Gm] nighttime's wonderful
[C] and [Cm] twilight never really [Eb] brings them to any end.
[Ab] If white is right [G] and [Gm] black is beautiful, Lord,
[Cm] tell me, where [Ab] can brown [C] begin?
Tell me, people, [Fm] where [Eb] does [Ab] brown [Bb] _
_ begin?
_ [Fm] _ [F] _ _ _
[Ab] _ _ _ _ _ [Fm] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [F] Someday there'll be a man
[Eb] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Bb] floating between [Eb] stars on [Bb] wings of light.
[Db] A [Ab] universal [Bb] man, _ _ [Eb] _ _ _ _
[Db] a [Gb] universal _ man, [Eb] _
a [D] golden [Fm] man. _ _ _
[Bbm] _ _ _ But where can brown begin?
_ Tell me, people, where can [Eb] brown _ [Fm] _ _
begin? _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Db] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [F] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [N] _ _ _ _ _ _
