 Golden Brown, texture like sun
 Dm       C6    Dm           C6     
 Lays me down, with my mind she runs
 Dm              C6    Dm          C6  
 Throughout the night, no need to fight
 Dm       C6    Dm          C6  
 Never a frown with Golden Brown
 
 Dm C6 Dm C6 
     
 
 Every time, just like the last
 On the ship tied to the mast
 To distant lands, takes both my hands
 Never a frown with Golden Brown
 
 Am Em F G6 Am Em F G6 Am Em F G6 Am Em G F 
         
 Dm C6 Dm C6 
     
 
 Golden Brown, fine a temptress
 Through the ages she's heading west
 >From far away, stays for a day
 Never a frown with Golden Brown
 
 Am Em F G6 Am Em F G6 Am Em F G6 Am Em G F

 The vanity of an ancient king

 Where the wind howls and the vultures sing
