Greenfields chords by The Brothers Four

Guitar 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: A minorAm DmDm A minorAm E MajorE


Verse:
A minorAm              DmDm           A minorAm            E MajorE
Once there were green fields kissed by the sun
A minorAm              DmDm            A minorAm             E MajorE
Once there were valleys where rivers used to run


Chorus:
FF               G+G               C majorC                 A7*
Once there were blue skies with white clouds high above
Dm7Dm7            G7G7         C majorC           E MajorE
Once they were part of an everlasting love
A minorAm          DmDm         A minorAm   E MajorE                 FF  A minorAm   DmDm  E 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:
FF                                 C majorC
I'll never know what made you run away
FF                                                  C majorC
How can I keep searching when dark clouds hide the day
A minorAm                  DmDm
I only know there's nothing here for me
A minorAm              DmDm          FF              E 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
