The Pogues
G
One summer evening drunk to hell
Am C
I sat there nearly lifeless
G
An old man in the corner sang
C Am
where the waterlilies grow
G
And on the jukebox Johnny sang
Am C
about a thing called love
G Am
and it's how are you kid
C G
and whats your name
C Am
and how would you bloody know
In blood and death 'neath
a screaming sky
I lay down on the ground
And the arms and legs of other men
were scattered all around
Some cursed some prayed some prayed
then cursed then prayed and bled some more
And the only thing that I could see
G Am C G
Was a pair of brown eyes that was looking
at me
G Am C G
But when we got back labelled parts one to
three
G Am C G
There was no pair of brown eyes waiting for
me
G Am C
G
And a rovin' a rovin' a rovin' I'll go
And a rovin' a rovin' a rovin' I'll go
And a rovin' a rovin' a rovin' I'll go
C Am
For a pair of brown eyes
C D G
For a pair of brown eyes
