Brown Eyed Girl Chord Chart by Van Morrison
Brown Eyed Girl by Van Morrison is a fun beginner song I use with a lot of students. I like it because it uses the 4 most basic guitar chords I start my guitar students on. So let’s take a look at the Brown Eyed Girl Guitar Chart below.
I have skipped the intro because that part is usually played by an electric guitar. I usually have student come in on right after the intro. Keep in mind the first G chord of the verse is played BEFORE the singer starts singing.
Strum:
1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + or 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 +

G C G D
Whatever happened to Tuesday and so slow
G C G D
Going down to the old mine with a transistor radio

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

Makin' love in the green grass behind the stadium with
