Elvis Costello - Brown To Blue

D D7 G E
we stood there in the courthouse room so close but far apart
A A7 D A
you brought along the lawyer and i brought a broken heart
D D7 G E
the judge pronounced the words the way you wanted him to do
A A7 D D7
you changed your name from brown to jones and mine from brown to blue

G D D7
i couldn’t help my tears from falling on the courtroom floor
G D A A7
my love , they took away my right to love you anymore
D D7 G E
my world just seemed to stop as i stood there so close to you
A A7 D A
you changed your name from brown to jones and mine from brown to blue

D D7 G E
the judge forgot to tell me how i’d live my life alone
A A7 D A
what i would do without you after loving you so long
D D7 G E
he didn’t seem to care that i’m still in love with you
A A7 D D7
you changed your name from brown to jones and mine from brown to blue

G D D7
i couldn’t help my tears from falling on the courtroom floor
G D A A7
my love , they took away my right to love you anymore
D D7 G E
my world just seemed to stop as i stood there so close to you
A A7 G D
you changed your name from brown to jones and mine from brown to blue
