Brown Eyed Girl V.Morisson I've played this tune for a long time, but it would take me a long time to write the tab for it, since I haven't really written or used tab much. I play the tune with first-position chords, just like a typical song book, and you should be able to find the melody under those chord shapes pretty readily, at least in A. Here's the tab for the intro and the chord progression for the tune: Intro for Brown-Eyed Girl (Van Morrison) A D A E 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 -----------------2---3-5---3-2----------------------------------- -2---3-5---3-2---3---5-7---5-3---2---3-5---3-2---0---------0----- -2---4-6---4-2-------------------2---4-6---4-2---1-----1---1----- -----------------0-------------------------------------2--------- -0-------------------------------0------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------0--------------- A D A E (E7) 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 -----------------2---3-5---3-2----------------------------------- -2---3-5---3-2---3---5-7---5-3---2---3-5---3-2---0--------------- -2---4-6---4-2-------------------2---4-6---4-2---1-----1---2-4--- -----------------0-------------------------------------2--------- -0-------------------------------0------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------0--------------- Chorus: A D A E A D A E A D A E A D A E D E A F#m D E A % (....You're my Brown Eyed Girl) ^ (Bm is a nice alternative, of course)
