Bitter Green

Gordon Lightfoot

[Verse 1]
Upon the bitter green she walked
The hills above the town
Echo to her footsteps
As soft as eiderdown
Waitin' for her master
To kiss away the tears
Waitin’ through the years

[Chorus]
Bitter Green they called her
Walking in the sun
Loving everyone that she met
Bitter Green they called her
Waitin' in the sun
Waitin' for someone to take her home

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2]
Some say he was a sailor
Who died away at sea
Some say he was a prisoner
Who never was set free
Lost upon the ocean
He died there in the mist
Dreaming of a kiss

[Chorus]
Bitter Green they called her
Walking in the sun
Loving everyone that she met
Bitter Green they called her
Waitin’ in the sun
Waitin' for someone to take her home

[Fiddle Solo]

[Verse 3]
But now, that bitter green is gone
The hills have turned to rust
There comes a weary stranger
His tears fall in the dust
Kneelin' by the churchyard
In the autumn mist
Dreaming of a kiss

[Chorus]
Bitter Green they called her
Walking in the sun
Loving everyone that she met
Bitter Green they called her
Waitin' in the sun
Waitin' for someone
To take her home
