D A
Upon the Bitter Green she walked the hills above the town
F#m Em
Echoed to her footsteps as soft as eiderdown
F#m Em
Waiting for her master to kiss away her tears
A
Waiting through the years
D G A
[Chorus] Bitter Green they called her walking in the sun
G A D
Loving everyone that she met
D G A
Bitter Green they called her waiting in the sun
G A D
Waiting for someone to take her home
D A
Some say he was a sailor who died away at sea
F#m Em
Some say he was a prisoner who never was set free
F#m Em
Lost upon the ocean he died there in the mist
A
Dreaming of a kiss
[Chorus]
D A
But now the Bitter Green is gone the hills have turned to rust
F#m Em
There comes a weary stranger whose tears fall in the dust
F#m Em
Kneeling by the churchyard in the autumn mist
A
Dreaming of a kiss
[Chorus]
