FRANKIE McBRIDE FORTY SHADES OF GREEN chords
Start Jamming...
[C]
[G]
[Am] 40 [Bm] shades [G] of green
I close my eyes and picture
[C] The emerald of the sea
From the fishing boats [G] at Dangle
To [A] the shoals of [D] Dunedin
I [G] miss the river Shennan
And [C] the boats at Skiverine
The moorlands and [G] the meadows
With [Am] their 40 [D] shades [G] of green
[C] But most of all [D] I miss a girl
[G] In Tipperary town
[C] And most of all [G] I miss [D] her lips
[G] As soft as I [D] do down
[G] Again I want to see and hear
[C] The things we've done and seen
Where the breeze is [G] Swedish and warm
[Am] And there's [D] 40 [G] shades of green
I [A]
wish that I could spend an hour
[D] At Dublin's churning surf
I'd love to watch the [A]
farmers
[B] Drain the bogs and spade the [E] turf
[A] To see again the thatching of
[D] The straw the women weave
I'd walk from court [A] to lawn
To see [Bm] the 40 [E] shades [A] of green
[D] But most of all [E] I miss a girl
[A] In Tipperary town
[D] And most of all [A] I miss [Bm] her lips
[A] As soft as I [E] do down
[A] Again I want to see and hear
[D] The things we've done and seen
Where the breeze is [A] Swedish and warm
[Bm] And there's [E] 40 shades [A] of green
[D] 40 [A]
[Bm] [E] shades [A] of green
