INTRO: F Gm7 F Gm7



#1.
F
Upon the bitter green she walked, 
    C
the hills above the town,
       Am                  Gm7
Echo'd to her footsteps as soft as Eider down.
Am                        Gm7
Waiting for her master to kiss away her tears,
                    C
Waiting through the years.

CHORUS:
       F
Bitter Green they called her,
Bb             C
Walking in the sun,
Bb          C            F
Loving everyone that she met.
                  F
Bitter Green they called her,
Bb             C
Waiting in the sun,
Bb              C               F
Waiting for someone to take her home.



#2.
F                            C
Some say he was a sailor who sailed upon the sea.
     Am                        Gm7
Some say he was a prisoner who never was set free.
Am                     Gm7
Lost upon the ocean he died there in the mist,
Bb       Gm7    C
Dreaming of her kiss.


CHORUS:
       F
Bitter Green they called her,
Bb             C
Walking in the sun,
Bb          C            F
Loving everyone that she met.
                  F
Bitter Green they called her,
Bb             C
Watching in the sun,
Bb              C               F
Waiting for someone to take her home.


#3.
F                                     C
But now the bitter green is gone, the hills have

turned to rust.
      Am                                Gm7
There comes a weary stranger, his tears fall in the dust.
Am                        Gm7
Waiting by the churchyard in the autumn mist,
Bb       Gm7    C
Dreaming of her kiss.



CHORUS:
       F
Bitter Green they called her,
Bb             C
Walking in the sun,
Bb          C            F
Loving everyone that she met.
                  F
Bitter Green they called her,
Bb              C
Watching in the sun,
Bb              C                 F
Waiting for someone...to take her home.
