Chord structure:
F#m B E (x2)
GEAF#FBE
(E) F#mBE
Brass buttons green silks and silver shoes
F#mBE
Warm evenings pale mornings bottle of blues
G#mEAF#
And the tiny golden pins that she wore up in her hair
F#mBE
Brass buttons green silks and silver shoes
F#mBE
My mind was young until she grew
F#mBE
My secret thoughts known only by a few
G#mE
It was a dream much too real
AF#
To be leaned against too long
F#mBE
All the time I think she knew
F#mBE
Her words still dance inside my head
F#mBE
Her comb still lies beside my bed
G#mE
And the sun comes up without her
AF#
It just doesn't know she's gone
F#mBE
But I remember everything she said
F#mBE
Brass buttons green silks and silver shoes
F#mBE
Warm evenings pale mornings bottle of blues
G#mEAF#
And the tiny golden pins that she wore up in her hair
F#mBE
Brass buttons green silks and silver shoes
FBE
