Ground wire on headlight switch?

What color is the ground wire on the headlight switch for a '94 F-series? I looked at a wiring diagram but it doesn't make it very clear, looks like it might be the brown wire but that's the one that goes to the headlights.

I don't think the switch has it's own ground. It just sends power to the lights and the lights have there own grounds.

Well, crap...in that case, is there a handy ground in the dash I could use for gauges?
