G C G D
Hey, where did we go days when the rain came
G C G D
Down in the hollow playing a new game
G C
Laughing, and a running, hey, hey
G D G C
Skipping and a jumping in the misty morning fog,
G D C D G Em
with our hearts a thumpin' and you, my brown eyed girl
C D G
You, my brown eyed girl
bridge:
D7
Do you remember when we used to sing
G C G D7
Sha la la la la la la la te da Just like that
G C G D7 G
Sha la la la la la la la te da la te da
Now that I'm all on my own
I saw you just the other day
My, how you have grown
Cast my memory back there Lord
Sometimes I'm overcome thinkin' 'bout it
Makin’ love in the green grass
Behind the stadium
With you, my brown eyed girl
You, my brown eyed girl
Play bridge again

| I think this song is brilliant... see it as a stand-alone song and don't compare it to the original. Is it a good song? In my opinion, yes it is. Reminds me of... happier days. | |

| The problem is, you can't just look at a cover song and then compare it to the original in the same view point. Cover songs are meant to be seen in a different view. When a song is covered, the artist puts a little bit of their touch into it, while still paying homage to the original artist, that is if they even care about the artist they covered. Looking at it from a different perspective, it's not a bad cover. | |

| I felt the same way at first too, but after a while it really grew on me. Unfortunatly I still don't understand the video. | |
