BITTER GREEN Time: 4/4 (sync) Tenor: D Bass: C


INTRO: 1, 1, 2m, 2m


1 * 5 *
Up-on the Bitter Green she walked, the hills above the town
3m * 2m *
Echoed to her footsteps, as soft as eider-down
3m * 2m *
Waiting for her master to kiss away her tears
* 5
Waiting through the years


CHORUS:
1 * 4 5
Bitter Green, they called her, walking in the sun
4 5 1 *
Loving ev'ry-one that she met____
1 * 4 5
Bitter Green they called her, waiting in the sun
4 5 1 *
Waiting for some-one to take her home____


1 * 5 *
Some say he was a sailor who died away at sea
3m 2m *
Some say he was a prisoner who never was set free
3m * 2m *
Lost upon the ocean, he died there in the mist
* 5
Dreaming of a kiss


1 * 5 *
But now the Bitter Green is gone, the hills have turned to rust
3m * 2m *
There comes a weary stranger whose tears fall in the dust
3m * 2m *
Kneeling by the churchyard, in the autumn mist
* 5
Dreaming of a kiss


ENDING: REPEAT CHORUS
