Verse 1
C
G
One summer evening drunk
Am
C
to hell I sat there nearly lifeless
C
Am
Where the water lilies grow
Johnny sang
C
G
And it's how are you kid
Am
C
And what's your name
G
C
And how'd your buddy know
Am
G
In blood and death
Underneath the screaming sky,
Am
C
I laid down on the ground
Am
G
The arms and legs of other men
C
Am
were scattered all around
G
Some cursed, some freed, some freed then cursed,
Am
C
some fled then freed some more
G
Am
C
And the only thing that I could see
G
Am
Was a pair of brown eyes
G
Am
But when we got back,
G
Am
There was no pair of brown

C
All I could do was hate him
C
Am
Of my elusive dreams
Am
C
Where his brown eyes were waiting
G
Am
And I thought about a
C
G
pair of brown eyes
C
Am
That waited once for me
I left the place
Came across the breeze
C
Am
So I gave the walls a talking
Of long ago
C
G
Am
And the birds were whistling
C
G
in the trees
C
G
C
Am
Where the wind was gently laughing
G
Am
C
G
And a -roving, a -roving, a -roving I'll go
