Subject: UN: REQ for Pamela Brown

Leo Kottke's Pamela Brown (album: Ice Water) was requested recently.
The song was actually written by the great Tom T. Hall - a fine story
telling kinda player.  I'm sure the words are close - and most of the
chords too.  I'm not too happy about the D7 in the chorus but then I
remember that guys like T.T.Hall just don't use tough chords.  This is
the key I sing it in.  If I've missed a verse or something then I'll
actually find the album (lost alphabetical order during last move ...)
and check it.  


Pamela Brown                   Tom T. Hall
============


G       /       C       /    G      /      /
I'm the guy who didn't marry pretty Pamela Brown
   C         G                 G                D
An educated, well intentioned, good girl in our town
G      /        C         /   G      /        /
Wonder where I'd be today if she had loved me too
  C         D               G
Probably be driving kids to school.


Chorus:

     C       /      D      /      G
   I guess I owe it all to Pamela Brown
     C    /  G    /      G      D7      D
   All of my good times, all my roaming around
   C            D               G       C
   One of these days I might be in your town
         G              C      D      G
   And I guess I owe it all to Pamela Brown


G         /        C       /      G            /     /
Seen the lights of citys and I've been through many doors
C       /       G             G                 D
Been to foreign countries and walked upon their shores
G         /       C               G
Seems the guy she married was the best part of my luck
    C                 D               G
She dug him `cause he drove a pick-up truck.   And ..


Chorus:

Interlude:

Chorus:

[slower]

G               C                 G             G
I don't have to tell you just how beautiful she was
C             G              G              D
Everything it takes to get a guy like me in love
G                  C                G
Lord, I hope she's happy `cause she sure deserves to be
C              D               G              C
Especially for what she did to me.       And  ...
