------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Brown Eyes" - Andy Davis ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Aaron Fritschner Email: [email protected]
Tuning: Standard
From his album "Let the Woman," as fine a piece of pop craftsmanship as has been made. I'd stack this song and "Earth and Venus" next to any melody written this decade. I'll try and get around to tabbing that one when I can. Here's a fine new song by a great young singer and songwriter.
Its in C#, Andy Davis being a piano player who likes relative minors and the black keys (as he says in another song). I'd say that key and Ab seem to suit his voice quite well. The song might be easier for those not comfortable with barred chords if you play it with a capo on the 4th fret; a C# would then be an A, AB would be AG, and an F#AD.
All the chords are obviously played on a piano, which means that there are a bunch of different ways to play each one, since he is playing more notes than you will be able to touch on a guitar. I am going to write them out the way I like them to sound on my Martin. I'm going to leave that high E alone for the most part, since it is hard to reach, but if you like that high note, it is alternating mostly between a D# (11th fret) and a C# (9th fret). I recommend on the verses that you stick to playing the chords only across the D,G, and B strings-- it is easier and sounds closer to what Andy is playing.
Opens with a chord that sounds cool, which I will call...
C#sus2

Coda chords are B -- F# -- C#sus2 (with the occasional C#sus2 to C#)
Yeah I don't even know her but I know she had brown eyes Don't even know her but I know she's about my height If I remember right Yeah we just met once and she was gone up and outta my life Tell me have you seen her yeah Can't miss her my friend She's a tall brunette 'Bout 5'8 or 5'9 or 5'10 Yeah I wanna be taking her our But you get ahead of myself Be laughing and seeing what happens
If you play with a capo, simply subtract the number of the fret you put the capo on from each of these numbers here. That about does it. Tomorrow, perhaps, "Earth and Venus."
