The Green Willow Lyrics and guitar chords

Recorded by Foster And Allen-Words And Music By Farrell.


[G]Say weeping green[C] willow will you tell me[G] why

On the spur of the [Em]moment when [A7]I said good[D7] bye

I [G]saw her[C] walking away out of[G] sight

Now I re[Em]gretfully[Am] think of[D7] my[G] wife

[Chorus]

[C]Willow green willow as your[G] branches hang low

You seem to be [Em]sighing for the [A7]sadness I [D7]know

I [G]love her for[C]ever, 'till the day that I[G] die

Untill the green [Em]willow looks[Am7] up to[D7] the [G]sky

All around the city the daytime seems dark

As I watch all the couples walk down through the park

Missed oppertunities never come twice

Darling, I'm longing, I'm paying the price

Today was tomorrow just yesterday

Time goes so slowly now she's gone away

Time must go on, though my heart feels the pain

Perhaps some day soon, she will come back again
