Greenfields by The Brothers Four

Chords with lyrics

May not be exact, but this is how I play it. I'm cribbing from videos I've seen of
performances by the Brothers Four.

Capo 2nd fret.

For the intro, strum the chords, then arpeggiate -- listen to the song to hear how
specifically to do it. The strumming pattern for the rest of the song is very
easy: two down strokes for each chord. There appears to be some palm muting as well.

Intro: Chord diagramA minorAm Chord diagramDmDm Chord diagramA minorAm Chord diagramE MajorE

Verse:
Chord diagramA minorAm       Chord diagramDmDm      Chord diagramA minorAm      Chord diagramE MajorE
Once there were green fields kissed by the sun
Chord diagramA minorAm       Chord diagramDmDm      Chord diagramA minorAm       Chord diagramE MajorE
Once there were valleys where rivers used to run

Chorus:

Once there were blue skies with white clouds high above
Chord diagramDm7Dm7      Chord diagramG7G7     Chord diagramC majorC      Chord diagramE MajorE
Once they were part of an everlasting love
Chord diagramA minorAm     Chord diagramDmDm     Chord diagramA minorAm  Chord diagramE MajorE         Chord diagramFF Chord diagramA minorAm  Chord diagramDmDm Chord diagramE MajorE
We were the lovers who strolled through green fields

Green fields are gone now, parched by the sun
Gone from the valleys where rivers used to run

Gone with the cold wind that swept into my heart
Gone with the lovers who let their dreams depart
Where are the green fields that we used to roam

Bridge:

I'll never know what made you run away
Chord diagramFF                         Chord diagramC majorC
How can I keep searching when dark clouds hide the day
Chord diagramA minorAm         Chord diagramDmDm
I only know there's nothing here for me
Chord diagramA minorAm       Chord diagramDmDm     Chord diagramFF       Chord diagramE MajorE
Nothing in this wide world, left for me to see

Verse:
Still I'll keep on waiting until you return
I'll keep on waiting until the day you learn

Chorus:
You can't be happy while your heart's on the roam
You can't be happy until you bring it home
Home to the green fields and me once again

Coda: strum, then arpeggiate Am-Dm-Am-E pattern, then end with an Am, barred at
the 5th fret. Play this:
