Brandy (You're A Fine Girl)(Chords)

	        
  G           D     Am     Em7    
There?s a port on a western bay    
       Am       C       F         C    
And it serves a hundred ships a day    
          G  D           Am    Em7    
Lonely sailors pass the time away    
    Am    C            G    
And talk about their homes    
    
     G        D        Am     Em7    
There?s a girl in this harbor town   
       Am    C       F      C    
And she works laying whiskey down   
        G    D         Am        Em7    
They say Brandy, fetch another round    
     Am          C         G    
She serves them whisky and wine    
The sailors say...    
    
Em              D     	       
Brandy, you're a fine girl     
        Em                 C   
What a good wife you would be    
G                        D              G  Gsus4   
Your eyes could steal a sailor from the sea    
    
G   D           Am     Em7    
Brandy wears a braided chain    
       Am       C                F      C    
Made of finest silver from the north of Spain	   
    G  D       Am        Em7     Am          C         G    
A locket that bears the name of the man that Brandy loves    
    G  D       Am     Em7           Am C        F    C   
He came on a summers day - bearing gifts - from far away    
       G       D         Am      Em7    
But he made it clear he couldn't stay    
     Am   C         G    
No harbor was his home...    
    
Em               D           
Brandy, you're a fine girl    
       Em                  C  
What a good wife you would be 
     G                  D                G  Gsus4   
Your eyes could steal a sailor from the sea    
    
Em             D           
Brandy used to watch his eyes    
      C               D   
As he told his sailor stories    
         Em             D           
he could feel the ocean fall and rise    
C                  D  
She saw its raging glory    
Em                F            
But he had always told the truth    
        G             D    
Lord he was an honest man    
    G               D              G  Gsus4  
And Brandy does her best to understand    

   G   D           Am         Em7    
At night when the bars close down   
Am     C               F      C 
Brandy walks through a silent town   
   G        D          Am     Em7    
And loves a man who's not around    
    Am         C       G    
She still can hear him say    

She hears him say...    
    
Em               D           
Brandy, you're a fine girl    
Em                         C   
What a good wife you would be    
G                       D                G  Gsus4   
Your eyes could steal a sailor from the sea    

Em               D           
Brandy, you're a fine girl    
Em                         C   
What a good wife you would be    
G                         D            G  Gsus4   
But my life, my lover, my lady, is the sea
