Orthodox Celts - Green Roses
At the crGack of the dawn thunder and lightning crossed the Cway
The Amshadow of night Emwaited to see the Cbright light of the Dday
NoGbody saw his bitter tears through the Cdark veil of rain
The Amriver of blood Emunder his feet run Cwild again and Dagain
Refrain: (2x)
The green Groses will Cgrow
While Amgreen fields turn to Dred
Only Emmemory reCmains
Of Amhero and his Dfaith
GHe just stood and he stared with a Csword in his hand
AmUnder the bridge of Emrainbow's gold he Cfought for his Dland
The Gblack crow stole his destiny and Cflew from the cross
AmFlyin' high, Emgoin' so far to Ctake his soul awDay.
Refrain (2x)
At the crGack of the dawn thunder and lightning crossed the Cway
The Amshadow of night Emwaited to see the Cbright light of the Dday
NoGbody saw his bitter tears through the Cdark veil of rain
The Amriver of blood Emunder his feet run Cwild again and Dagain
Refrain (4x)
