A                                        D
We stood there in the courthouse room so close yet far apart,
E7                                  A
You had brought your lawyer and I'd brought a broken heart,
                                           D
The judge pronounced the words the way you wanted him to do,
    E7
And changed your name from Brown to Jones,
                       A     A7
And mine from Brown to Blue.
  D
I couldn't keep my tears from falling,
A                       A7
On the courtroom floor,
   D
By law, they took away my rights,
   A             E7
To love you any- more,
   A
My world just seemed to stop,
              D
While I stood there so close to you,
     E7
They changed your name from Brown to Jones,
                       A
And mine from Brown to Blue.
A                                   D
The judge forgot to tell me how I'd live my life alone,
     E7                           A
What I would do without you after loving you so long,
                                 D
He didn't seem to care that I am still in love with you,
   E7
He changed your name from Brown to Jones,
                       A     A7
And mine from Brown to Blue.
  D
I couldn't keep my tears from falling,
A                       A7
On the courtroom floor,
   D
By law, they took away my rights,
   A             E7
To love you any- more,
   A
My world just seemed to stop,
              D
While I stood there so close to you,
     E7
They changed your name from Brown to Jones,
                       A
And mine from Brown to Blue.
