Lyrics
Once there were (Fm)green fields (Cm)kissed by the (G7)sun;
(Cm)once there were (Fm)valleys where (Cm)rivers used to (G7)run,
(Ab)once there was (Bb7)blue sky with (Gm7)white clouds high (C7)above,
(Fm7)once they were (Bb7)part of an (Cm)everlasting (G7)love.
(Cm)We were the (Fm)lovers who (Cm)strolled (G7)through green (Cm)fields.
(Cm)Green fields are (Fm)gone now, (Cm)parched by the (G7)sun;
(Cm)gone from the (Fm)valleys where (Cm)rivers used to (G7)run,
(Ab)gone with the (Bb7)cold wind that (Gm7)swept into my (C7)heart,
(Fm7)gone with the (Bb7)lovers who (Cm)let their dreams (G7)depart.
(Cm)Where are the (Fm)green fields that (Cm)we (G7)used to (Cm)roam?
(Ab)I'll never (Bb9)know what (Fm7)made you (Bb7)run (Eb)away.
(Ab)How can I keep (Bb9)searching when (Fm7)dark clouds (Bb7)hide the (Eb)day?
(Cm)I only know there's (Ab)nothing here for (Fm)me,
(Cm)Nothing in this (Fm)wide world (Fm6)left for me to (G7)see,
but (Cm)I'll keep on (Fm)waitin' (Cm)'til you (G7)return.
(Cm)I'll keep on (Fm)waiting (Cm)until the day you (G7)learn (Ab)you can't be (Bb7)happy while (Gm7)your heart's on the (C7)roam.
(Fm7)You can't be (Bb7)happy (Cm)until you bring it (G7)home,
(Cm)home to the (Fm7)green fields and (Cm)me (G7)once (Cm)again.
(Cm)Once there were (Fm)green fields (Cm)kissed by the (G7)sun;
(Cm)once there were (Fm)valleys where (Cm)rivers used to (G7)run,
(Ab)once there was (Bb7)blue sky with (Gm7)white clouds high (C7)above,
(Fm7)once they were (Bb7)part of an (Cm)everlasting (G7)love.
(Cm)We were the (Fm)lovers who (Cm)strolled (G7)through green (Cm)fields.
(Cm)Green fields are (Fm)gone now, (Cm)parched by the (G7)sun;
(Cm)gone from the (Fm)valleys where (Cm)rivers used to (G7)run,
(Ab)gone with the (Bb7)cold wind that (Gm7)swept into my (C7)heart,
(Fm7)gone with the (Bb7)lovers who (Cm)let their dreams (G7)depart.
(Cm)Where are the (Fm)green fields that (Cm)we (G7)used to (Cm)roam?
(Ab)I'll never (Bb9)know what (Fm7)made you (Bb7)run (Eb)away.
(Ab)How can I keep (Bb9)searching when (Fm7)dark clouds (Bb7)hide the (Eb)day?
(Cm)I only know there's (Ab)nothing here for (Fm)me,
(Cm)Nothing in this (Fm)wide world (Fm6)left for me to (G7)see,
but (Cm)I'll keep on (Fm)waitin' (Cm)'til you (G7)return.
(Cm)I'll keep on (Fm)waiting (Cm)until the day you (G7)learn (Ab)you can't be (Bb7)happy while (Gm7)your heart's on the (C7)roam.
(Fm7)You can't be (Bb7)happy (Cm)until you bring it (G7)home,
(Cm)home to the (Fm7)green fields and (Cm)me (G7)once (Cm)again.
(Cm)gain. (G7)(Ab)Home to the (Fm7)green fields and (Cm6)me (G7)once (Cm)again.
