U pon the Bitter Green she was
The Em7/Dhills above the town
Dmaj7Echoed to the footsteps
As Em7/Dsoft as heather down
DWaiting for her Dmaj7master
To Em7/Dkiss away her tears
Waiting through the Ayears
DBitter Dmaj7Green they Dmaj7/F#called her
GWalking in the Asun
GLoving every Aone that she Dmet
Dmaj7Bitter Green they F#m/C#called her
G/BWaiting in the Asun
GWaiting for some Aone to take her Dhome
Some Dsay he was a sailor
Who Em7/Adied away at sea
Some Dmaj7/Asay he was a prisoner
Who Em7/Anever was set free
Dmaj7/ALost upon the ocean
He Em7/Adied there in the mist
Em7/ADreaming of her Akiss
DBitter Dmaj7Green they Dmaj7/F#called her
GWalking in the Asun
GLoving every Aone that she Dmet
Dmaj7Bitter Green they F#m/C#called her
G/BWaiting in the Asun
GWaiting for some Aone to take her

home But
DBut now, that Bitter Green is gone
The Em7/Ahills have turned to rust
There Dmaj7/Acomes a weary stranger
His Em7/Atears fall in the dust
Dmaj7Kneeling by the churchyard
Em7/AIn the autumn mist
Em7Dreaming of her Akiss
DBitter Dmaj7Green they Dmaj7/F#called her
GWalking in the Asun
GLoving every Aone that she Dmet
Dmaj7Bitter Green they F#m/C#called her
G/BWaiting in the Asun
GWaiting for some Aone to take her Dhome
DBitter Dmaj7Green they Dmaj7/F#called her
GWalking in the Asun
GLoving every Aone that she Dmet
Dmaj7Bitter Green they F#m/C#called her
G/BWaiting in the Asun
GWaiting for some Aone ....to take her
