Lyrics

Gold en (Db)Brown, (Ebm)tex ture like sun,

lays me down, (Ebm)with my mind she runs (Ebm)through out the night.

(Ebm)No need to fight, (Ebm)nev er a frown (Ebm)with Gol den Brown.

Evโ€™ ry (Db)time, (Ebm)just like the last,

on her ship, (Ebm)tied to the mast, (Ebm)to dis tant lands, (Ebm)takes both my hands,

(Ebm)with Gol den Brown.

(Ebm)with Gol den Brown.

(Ebm)with Gol den Brown.
