Forty Shades Of Green
Written & Recorded by Johnny Cash
(Capo on 3)
Intro.: |(A) |(E) |(F#7) |(E) |(E) |
I (E) close my eyes and picture (A)the emerald of the sea
I (E)miss the river Shannon and the (A)folks at Skibbereen
The moorlands and the (E)meadows with their (F#7) forty (B7)shades of (E)green
But (A) most of all I (B7) miss a girl (E)in Tipperary town
(A)And most of all I (B7) miss her lips (E)as soft as eider-(F#7)down (B7)
(E)Again I want to see and do (A)the things we've done and seen
Where the breeze is sweet as (E)Shalimar and there's (F#7) forty (B7)shades of (E)green
Inst.: |(F) |(F) |(Gm7)(C7)
I (F) wish that I could spend an hour (Bb)at Dublin's churning surf
I'd love to watch the (F)farmers drain the (G7)bogs and spade the (C7)turf
To (F)see again the thatching of the (Bb)straw the women glean
I'd walk from Cork to (C7)Larne to (F)see (G7)the forty (C7)shades of (F)green
But (Bb) most of all I (C7) miss a girl (F)in Tipperary town
(Bb)And most of all I (C7) miss her lips (F)as soft as eider-(G7)down (C7)
(F)Again I want to see and do (Bb)the things we've done and seen
Where the breeze is sweet as (F)Shalimar and there's (G7) forty (C7)shades of (F)green -----
