[A] [D]
Well, there was this movie I seen one time
[Bm] [E] [A]
About a man riding 'cross the desert and it starred Gregory Peck
[A] [D]
He was shot down by a hungry kid trying to make a name for himself
[Bm] [E] [A]
The townspeople wanted to crush that kid down and string him up by the neck
[A] [D]
Well, the marshal, now he beat that kid to a bloody pulp
[Bm] [E] [A]
As the dying gunfighter lay in the sun and gasped for his last breath
[A] [D]
Turn him loose, let him go, let him say he outdrew me fair and square
[Bm] [E] [A]
I want him to feel what it's like to every moment face his death
[A] [D]
Well, I keep seeing this stuff and it just comes a-rolling in
[Bm] [E] [A]
And you know it blows right through me like a ball and chain
[A] [D]
You know I can't believe we've lived so long and are still so far apart
[Bm] [E] [A]
The memory of you keeps callin' after me like a rollin' train
[A] [D]
I can still see the day that you came to me on the painted desert
[Bm] [E] [A]
In your busted down Ford and your platform heels
[A] [D]
I could never figure out why you chose that particular place to meet
[Bm] [E] [A]
Ah, but you were right, it was perfect as I got in behind the wheel
[A] [D]
Well, we drove that car all night into San Anton'
[Bm] [E] [A]
And we slept near the Alamo, your skin was so tender and soft
[A] [D]
Way down in Mexico you went out to find a doctor and you never came back
[Bm] [E] [A]
I would have gone on after you but I didn't feel like letting my head get blown off
[A] [D]
Well, we're drivin' this car and the sun is comin' up over the Rockies
[Bm] [E] [A]
Now I know she ain't you but she's here and she's got that dark rhythm in her soul
[A]
But I'm too over the edge and I ain't in the mood anymore to remember
[D]
the times when I was your only man
[Bm] [E] [A]
And she don't want to remind me, she knows this car would go out of control
[Chorus]
[A] [D]
Brownsville girl with your Brownsville curls
[Bm] [E] [A]
Teeth like pearls shining like the moon above
[A] [D]
Brownsville girl, show me all around the world
[Bm] [E] [A]
Brownsville girl, you're my honey love
[Verse]
[A] [D]
Well, we crossed the panhandle and then we headed towards Amarillo
[Bm] [E] [A]
We pulled up where Henry Porter used to live, he owned a wreckin' lot outside of town about a
mile
[A]
Ruby was in the backyard hanging clothes, she had her red hair tied back
[D]
She saw us come rolling up in a trail of dust
[Bm] [E] [A]
She said, Henry ain't here but you can come on in, he'll be back in a little while
[A]
Then she told us how times were tough and about how she was thinkin' of
[A]
bummin' a ride back to where she started
[Bm] [E] [A]
But she changed the subject every time money came up
[A] [A]
She said, welcome to the land of the living dead, you could tell she was so broken-hearted
[Bm] [E] [A]
She said, even the swap meets around here are getting pretty corrupt
[A] [D]
How far are y'all going, Ruby asked us with a sigh
[Bm] [E] [A]
We're going all the way 'til the wheels fall off and burn
[A] [D]
'Til the sun peels the paint and the seat covers fade and the water moccasin dies
[Bm] [E] [A]
Ruby just smiled and said, ah, you know some babies never learn
[A] [D]
Something about that movie though, well I just can't get it out of my head
[Bm] [E] [A]
But I can't remember why I was in it or what part I was supposed to play
[A] [D]
All I remember about it was Gregory Peck and the way people moved
[Bm] [E] [A]
And a lot of them seemed to be lookin' my way
[Chorus]
[A] [D]
Brownsville girl with your Brownsville curls
[Bm] [E] [A]
Teeth like pearls shining like the moon above
[A] [D]
Brownsville girl, show me all around the world
[Bm] [E] [A]
Brownsville girl, you're my honey love
[Verse]
[A] [D]
Well, they were looking for somebody with a pompadour
[Bm] [E] [A]
I was crossin' the street when shots rang out
[A] [D]
I didn't know whether to duck or to run, so I ran
[Bm] [E] [A]
We got him cornered in the churchyard, I heard somebody shout
[A] [D]
Well, you saw my picture in the Corpus Christi Tribune, underneath it, it said, a man with no
alibi
[Bm] [E] [A]
You went out on a limb to testify for me, you said I was with you
[A] [D]
Then when I saw you break down in front of the judge and cry real tears
[Bm] [E] [A]
It was the best acting I saw anybody do
[A]
Now I've always been the kind of person that doesn't like to trespass,
[D]
but sometimes you just find yourself over the line
[Bm] [E] [A]
Oh if there's an original thought out there, I could use it right now
[A] [D]
You know, I feel pretty good, but that ain't sayin' much, I could feel a whole lot better
[Bm] [E] [A]
If you were just here by my side to show me how
[A] [D]
Well, I'm standin' in line in the rain to see a movie starring Gregory Peck
[Bm] [E] [A]
Yeah, but you know it's not the one that I had in mind
[A] [D]
He's got a new one out now, I don't even know what it's about
[Bm] [E] [A]
But I'll see him in anything so I'll stand in line
[Chorus]
[A] [D]
Brownsville girl with your Brownsville curls
[Bm] [E] [A]
Teeth like pearls shining like the moon above
[A] [D]
Brownsville girl, show me all around the world
[Bm] [E] [A]
Brownsville girl, you're my honey love
[A] [D]
You know, it's funny how things never turn out the way you had 'em planned
[Bm] [E] [A]
The only thing we knew for sure about Henry Porter is that his name wasn't Henry Porter
[A] [D]
And you know there was somethin' about you baby that I liked that was always too good for this
world
[Bm] [E]
Just like you always said there was something about me you liked
[A]
that I left behind in the French Quarter
[A] [D]
Strange how people who suffer together have stronger connections than people who are most
content
[Bm] [E] [A]
I don't have any regrets, they can talk about me plenty when I'm gone
[A]
You always said people don't do what they believe in
[D]
they just do what's most convenient, then they repent
[Bm] [E] [A]
And I always said, hang on to me, baby, and let's hope that the roof stays on
[A] [D]
There was a movie I seen one time, I think I sat through it twice
[Bm] [E] [A]
I don't remember who I was or where I was bound
[A] [D]
All I remember about it was it starred Gregory Peck, he wore a gun and he was shot in the back
[Bm] [E] [A]
Seems like a long time ago, long before the stars were torn down
[Chorus]
[A] [D]
Brownsville girl with your Brownsville curls
[Bm] [E] [A]
Teeth like pearls shining like the moon above
[A] [D]
Brownsville girl, show me all around the world
[Bm] [E] [A]
Brownsville girl, you're my honey love
[A] [D]
Brownsville girl with your Brownsville curls
[Bm] [E] [A]
Teeth like pearls shining like the moon above
[A] [D]
Brownsville girl, show me all around the world
[Bm] [E] [A]
Brownsville girl, you're my honey love
[A] [D]
Brownsville girl with your Brownsville curls
