There's a town near Nashville Tennessee called Green Hill, so I decided to capitalize "Green Hill," on the assumption that that's what the song is about. ============= Where the water tastes like summer wine And the sky is bright with blue and gold Birds are singin for the sun to shine In my Green Hill, Green Hill mountain home. Where my darling walks the woods alone On the soft brown carpet of the pine Cloudy-eyed from sorrow she has known In my Green Hill, Green Hill mountain home. Wanderin, so far from home, wandering and so alone When I'm walkin in the twilight of a long dreary day And my life weighs like cotton on my soul, Then I dream of a meadow up in a mountain so high And my love, breathin soft by my side.
Where the sunset, shinin through the trees |

Jesse Colin Young is singing it very high. My husband, a bass, has to sing falsetto to join him. 2. The key seems to be D. "Where the" are pick-up notes and don't get a chord. The first chord is D, on "water." Then it drops to Em. After that, you are on your own. 3. Work it out while listening to the video, then transpose the chords to your own key. If you don't know how to do that, come back and ask. Prolly should start a new thread. |
