My Green Valleys

G C G Em
G C G D

[Verse 1]
    G            C                G              Em
The seagulls are calling, and the wind is in the sails,
          G           C          D
And she's fast moving out to the sea,
     G              C             G              Em
On a ship bound for St.John three thousand miles away,
        G        C            G
A human cargo my comrades and me.

[Chorus]
    G       C                 G            D
Farewell my Green valleys God keep you the same,
   G     C            D
If in only my mind you will be,
    G       C     G          Em
I'm sailing dark waters, to far America,
G       C       G
Never more my Green valleys to see.

[Verse 2]
    G            C                G  Em
It hurts me to think of the things I left behind,
    G          C             D
And the famine has blackened our land
    G          C        G           Em
And to look now for something,that I may never find,
G       C       G
Is a problim that's closer to hand.

[Chorus]
    G       C                 G            D
Farewell my Green valleys God keep you the same,
      G      C          D
If in only my mind you will be,
     G         C        G       Em
I'm sailing dark waters, to far America,
G       C       G
Never more my Green valleys to see.

[Verse 3]
    G            C                G  Em
There's a fever a raging,and the wind has died away,
    G       C       D
And the jorney can no longer be,
          G             C       G          Em
And the plague is a shadow,that lingers night and day,
G       C       G
And more thoughts of Green valleys I'll see

[Chorus]
    G       C                 G            D
Farewell my Green valleys God keep you the same,
    G    C        D
If in only my mind you will be,
    G       C       G       Em
I'm sailing dark waters, to far America,
G       C       G
Never more my Green valleys to see.
