Hi,

I love this song and was just searching for the lyric to save writing them from memory for a friend. Thanks for saving me the trouble. There is just one correction ("dark" forest). I've also added the chords (in C, although Laurie does it in D--transpose E, Am to F#m, Bm)
Laurie's website is www.laurielewis.com but lyrics are not on it. If you're looking for bluegrass lyrics, a good source is

Good luck, Della

Green Fields by Laurie Lewis

C                            F
We used to live just on the outskirts of town
G                    C
When I was a little girl
                      F
The bright skies and dark forest
G                               C        
And the green fields were my world
C                            F
Then we moved away into the city
G                                C
And left the fields of home behind
                            F
And now when solitude's so hard to find
G                            C
My memories take me back in time

Chorus
F                          C
Where are my green fields now
            G
No nowhere around
        F        E         Am        F
So I'll steal away with my memories
         C        G                 C
And in green fields I'll lay me down

Now I've got concrete for my front yard
And it's the same way out in back
But still it fills my heart with happiness
To see green grass push through the cracks

(Chorus)

Well I guess I share the same time worn dreams
With folks in cities everywhere
To find a little place on God's green Earth
And live in peace and quiet there

(Chorus)
