(E)   F#m           B                E
Brass buttons green silks and silver shoes

     F#m           B                  E
Warm evenings pale mornings bottle of blues

        G#m         E             A              F#
And the tiny golden pins that she wore up in her hair

      F#m           B                E
Brass buttons green silks and silver shoes

F#m         B               E
My mind was young until she grew

F#m                      B         E
My secret thoughts known only by a few

         G#m            E
It was a dream much too real

       A                  F#
To be leaned against too long
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/g/gram_parsons/brass_buttons_crd.html ]
F#m         B                E
    All the time I think she knew

F#m             B               E
Her words still dance inside my head

F#m            B              E
Her comb still lies beside my bed

        G#m             E
And the sun comes up without her

                A          F#
It just doesn't know she's gone

F#m            B              E
But I remember everything she said

      F#m           B                E
Brass buttons green silks and silver shoes

     F#m           B                  E
Warm evenings pale mornings bottle of blues

        G#m         E             A              F#
And the tiny golden pins that she wore up in her hair

      F#m           B                E
Brass buttons green silks and silver shoes

F#m B E
