BROWN EYED GIRL by: Van Morrison Tab by: Aaron Meredith Standard tuning: (E-A-D-G-B-e) Over the years, I have seen this intro played a few different ways. I believe 1 & 2 are played together but all sound good. If there are 2 guitars playing, you can harmonize by playing 2 different ones.

REPEAT INTERLUDE & FADE: Throughout the song, guitar 2 is following the chords with some picking. I have tabbed out to give you an idea on how it is played. With a guitar part like this, I think you get down the basics and improvise!
