[Verse 2](half a tone higher)
         C/G                                    G
        We never had much money,grey eyes you know
                                                   C/G
        More rainy days than sunny,grey eyes you know
                                              F
        And life has been a long hard row to hoe

[Bridge]
         F                                  C/G
        Hard times took the blue from your eyes
                       D                  G
        Leaving them grey,as the winter skies

[Verse 3]
         C/G                          G
        We had our time i must walk away
                                              C/G
        Leave you here beneath this mound of clay
                                          F
        And i feel so empty as i turn to go
                  G                                         C/G
        Would my heart lie there beside you,grey eyes you know

            G                                          C/G
        My heart lies there beside you,grey eyes you know
