It would take me ages to work it out the chords . I would greatly appreciate if some Mudcatter who has already come to this impasse would show me the way across the Rubicon i.e. send me the chords Thanks in advance Click for lyrics in the Digital Tradition |

Click here I did it unaccompanied, though... if I take the time to figure out the chords I will post them, but I bet someone else will beat me to it. Alice |
21 Feb 03 - 11:48 PM (#895661) Subject: RE: Lyr/Chords req: Greenfields of Canada From: TIA I'm totally with you on this one. My favorite tune ever - if we're talking about the same one. There are several. At least two reels and a slow air (my favorite). Even the slow air, I've heard it played in G with the middle C's sharp or natural (my favorite). John Trillian has many of them in his index. Here's one (a reel) with chords... href="http://trillian.mit.edu/~jc/cgi/abc/gettune?F=PDF&U=/~jc/music/abc/Contra/RJ/Set32.abc&X=17&T=GREENFIELDSOFAMERICA&N=GreenFields">http://trillian.mit.edu/~jc/cgi/abc/gettune?F=PDF&U=/~jc/music/abc/Contra/RJ/Set32.abc&X=17&T=GREENFIELDSOFAMERICA&N=GreenFields |

Go to trillian.mit.edu The tune I'm calling my fav. is very close to the one played by Moloney, O'connel and Keane on their "Green Fields of America". From my experience, Green Fields of Canada tends to be almost identical, but with the middle C's sharped. |
