                               Four Green Fields
                                                 CAPO  none 
     CWhat Gdid I Chave, said the Ffine old Cwoman
     What Gdid I Chave, this Dproud old woman did Gsay
     I had Cfour G7green Cfields, each one Fwas a G7jewel
     But CstangeG7rs Ccame and D7tried to take then from G7me
     I had Cfine G7strong Csons, they fought to Fsave my G7jewels
     They Ffought G7and they Cdied, and that was my D7grief G7said Cshe.
     Long time ago, said the fine old woman
     Long time ago, this proud old woman did say
     There was war and death, plundering and pillage
     My children died, by mountain, valley and sea
     And their wailing cries, they shook the very heavens
     My four green fields, ran red with their blood, said she.
     What have I now, said the fine old woman
     What have I now, this proud old woman did say
     I have four green fields, one of them's in bondage
     In strangers hands, that tried to take it from me
     But my sons have sons, as brave as were there fathers
     My fourth green field, will bloom once again said she.
