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
