For Gmaj, throw a finger on the third fret on your B string (d6)


     G    D     Gmaj           C        G
     What did I have, said the fine old woman
     G    D     Gmaj       C         A         D
     What did I have, this proud old woman did say
           G    D     Em      G        C     D      D7
     I had four green fields, each one was a jewel
         G      D   Em       C         A             D7    
     But stang--ers came and tried to take them from me
            G    D7     Em         G          C       D
     But my fine strong sons, they fought to save my jewels
          C      D        G   Em    G           D     D7   Gmaj
     They fought and they died, and that was my grief said she.

     G    D    Gmaj          C        G
     Long time ago, said the fine old woman
     G    D    Gmaj      C         A         D
     Long time ago, this proud old woman did say
               G   D   Em     G       C       D        D7
     There was war and death, plunder-ing and pillage
        G    D    Em          C        A          D7   
     My chil-dren starved, by mountain valley and sea
               G    D7  Em          G           C    D
     And their wail-ing cries, they reached the very heavens
            C    D     G     Em    G              D      D7   Gmaj
     and my four green fields, ran red with their blood, said she.


     G    D      Gmaj          C        G
     What have I now, said the fine old woman
     G    D      Gmaj      C         A         D
     What have I now, this proud old woman did say
            G    D     Em      G      C         D        D7
     I have four green fields, one of them's in bondage
        G     D    Em          C        A            D7    
     In stran-gers hands, that tried to take it from me
            G    D7   Em       G        C          D
     But my sons have sons, as brave as were there fathers
        C    D     G     Em       G          D     D7   Gmaj
     My four green fields ,  will bloom once again said she.
            C    D     G     Em       G          D     D7   Gsus4 Gmaj
     and my four green fields ,  will bloom once again said she.
