Brass Buttons

A     Bm             E                 A
Brass buttons, green silks and silver shoes
     Bm             E                 D D/C# A
Warm evenings, pale mornings, bottled blues
A               A7            D       D          D/C#
And tiny golden pins that she wore up in her hair
      Bm             E                 A
Brass buttons, green silks and silver shoes

[Verse 1]
Bm          E                  A
My mind was young and then it grew
Bm                E         D D/C# A
My thoughts known only by a few
A                A7         D                       D/C#
A dream much too real to be leaned against too long
Bm          E                 A
And all the time I guess she knew

[Solo]

[Verse 2]
Bm                 E               A
Her thoughts still dance inside my head
Bm             E              D D/C#  A
Her comb still lies beside my bed
                      A7             D                     D/C#
But the sun comes up without her, it doesn't know she's gone
Bm               E                A
And it remembers nothing that she said

[Chorus]
      Bm             E                A
Brass buttons, green silks and silver shoes
     Bm             E                D   A
Warm evenings, pale mornings, bottled blues
A               A7            D                    D/C#
And tiny golden pins that she wore up in her hair
      Bm              E                A
Brass buttons, green silks and silver shoes
