[C]
[G] One summer's evening drunk to hell [Am] I stood there [C] nearly lifeless
[G] And an old man in the corner sang [C] Where the water [Am] lilies grow
[G] And on the jukebox Johnny sang [Am] About a [C] thing called love
[G] And it's how [Am] [C] you're killed And [G] what's your [C] name
And how'd you [A] bloody know?
[G] In blood and death meet the scream of sky [Am] I lay down [C] on the ground
[G] And the arms and legs of other men [C] Were scattered [A] all around
[G] Some cursed, some prayed, some prayed, then cursed, [Am] then prayed and [C] bled some more
[G] And the [Am] only [C] thing that I [G] could see Was a pair [Am] of brown eyes that was looking [G] at me
And when [Am] we got back, label [C] parts [G] one to three There were no [Am] pair of brown eyes waiting [G] for me
And I [Am] rove and I rove [C] and I [G] rove and I [C] rove For a pair of [Am] brown eyes
[C] I

[G] looked at him, he looked at me [Am] All I could [C] do was hate him
[G] While Ray and Phil and Mina sang [C] Of my [Am] elusive dream
[G] And I saw the streams and the rolling hills [Am] Where his brown [C] eyes were waiting
[G] And I [Am] thought about [C] a [G] pair of brown [C] eyes That waited [A] once for me
[G] So drunk to hell I left the place [Am] Sometimes calling, [C] sometimes walking
[G] A hungry sound came across the breeze [C] So I gave the [A] waltzes talking
[G] And I heard the sounds of long ago [Am] From the [C] old canal
[G] And the [Am] birds were [C] whistling [G] in the [C] trees Where the wind was [Am] gently lapping
[G] And I [Am] rove and I rove [C] and I [G] rove and I'll go And I [Am] rove and I [C] rove and [G] I'll go
