Whatever happened to Tuesday and so slow

G                        C                    G               D

Going down to the old mine with a transistor radio

G                     C                       G                      D

Standing in the sunlight laughing, hiding ‘hind a rainbow's wall

G                     C                      G                  D

Slipping and a sliding, hey, hey, All along the waterfall with

C   D                          G  Em    C     D                      G   

you, my brown eyed girl          You, my brown eyed girl

G              C                G                    D

So hard to find my way,  Now that I'm on my own

G              C                       G              D

I saw you just the other day, my, how you have grown

G              C                              G                       D

Cast my memory back there Lord. Sometimes I'm overcome thinkin' 'bout it

G                           C           G                  D

Makin' love in the green grass behind the stadium with

C   D                          G  Em    C     D                      G   

you, my brown eyed girl          You, my brown eyed girl
