Brown To Blue
by George Jones
G C
We stood there in the courthouse room so close yet far apart
D7 G
You had brought your lawyer and I'd brought a broken heart
C
The judge pronounced the words the way you wanted him to do
D7
And changed your name from Brown to Jones
G
And mine from Brown to Blue
C
I couldn't keep my tears from falling
G
On the courtroom floor
C
By law they took away my rights
G D7
To love you anymore
G
My world just seemed to stop
C
While I stood there so close to you
D7
They changed your name from Brown to Jones
G
And mine from Brown to Blue
C
The judge forgot to tell me how I'd live my life alone
D7 G
What I would do without you after loving you so long
C
He didn't seem to care that I am still in love with you
D7
He changed your name from Brown to Jones
G
And mine from Brown to Blue
