Four Green Fields
D | A7 | D | G | D |
What | did I | have said the | fine old wo | man, |
D | A7 | D | Em | A7 |
What | did I | have,this | fine old woman did | say, |
| D | A7 | D | G | A |
I have | four | Green | fields,each one | was a je | wel, |
| D | A | D | G | A |
But | stran | gers | came and | tried to take them from | me, |
| D | A | D | G | A |
I had | fine | strong | sons,they fought to | save my je | wels, |
| G | D | A | D |
They | fought and they | died,and that was my | greef said | she. |
Long time ago said the fine old woman,
Long time ago this fine old woman did say,
There was war and death,plundering and pillage,
My children starved,by mountain vally and streem,
And their wailing cry,it shook the very heavens,
My four Green fields ran red with their blood said she.
What have I now said the fine old woman
What have I now this proud old woman did say,
I have four Green fields,one of them's in bondage,
In strangers hands,that tried to take them from me,
But my sons have sons as brave as were their fathers,
My forth Green field will bloom once again said she.
