Johnny Cash – Forty Shades Of Green Chords

I close my eyes and picture, the emerald of the sea
From the fishing boats at Dingle,
To the shores of Duna’ dee
I miss the river Shannon, and the folks at Skibbereen
The moorlands and the meadows,
With their forty shades of green

But most of all I miss a girl, in Tipperary Town
And most of all I miss her lips, as soft as eider-down
A-gain I want to see and do, the things we’ve done and seen
Where the breeze is sweet as Shalimar
And there’s forty shades of green

I wish that I could spend an hour, at Dublin’s churning surf
I’d love to watch the farmers, drain the bogs and spade the turf
To see again the thatching, of the straw the women glean
I’d walk from Cork to Larne, to see the forty shades of green

But most of all I miss a girl in Tipperary Town
And most of all I miss her lips, as soft as eider-down
Again I want to see and do, the things we’ve done and seen
Where the breeze is sweet as Shalimar
And there’s forty shades of green
