Bitter Green Chords by Gordon Lightfoot

_ [E] _ _ _ _ [B] _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ [F#] _ _ _ _
Upon the bitter green she walked the hills above the town _
[B] Echoed to her footsteps as soft as I'd her down
Waiting for her master to kiss away her tears
Waiting through the years
[E] Bitter green they called [A] her walking [B] in the sun
[A] Loving everyone [E] that she met
Bitter green [D#] they called [A] her waiting [B] in the sun
[A] Waiting for someone to [E] take her hand
Some say he was a sailor [F#] who died away at sea
[B] Some say he was a prisoner who never was set free
Lost upon the ocean he died there in the mist
Dreaming of [B] her kiss
[E] Bitter green they called her [A] walking [B] in the sun
[A]
Loving [B] everyone that [E] she met
Bitter green they called [A] her waiting in [B] the sun
[A] Waiting for [B] someone to take [E] her home
But [B] _
_ _ _ [A] _ _ _ _ [G] _
_ _ _ [B] _ _ _ _ [E]
now the bitter green is [F#] gone the hills have turned to rust
[B] There comes a weary stranger his tears fall in the dust
Kneeling by the [F#] churchyard in the [F#] autumn mist
[B]
Dreaming of her kiss
[E] Bitter green they called her [A]
walking [B] in the sun
[A] Loving [B] everyone [E] that she met
Bitter green they called [A] her waiting [B] in the sun
[A] Waiting [B] for someone to [E] take her hand
_ Bitter green they called [A] her walking [B] in the sun
[A] Loving [B] everyone [E] that she met
_ Bitter green they called [A] her waiting [B] in the sun
[A] Waiting [B] for someone _ _ _ _ _ to take her [E] hand
_ [E] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
