Cm Fm
Out in the country
Bb Eb G# Fm
Far from all the soot and noise of the city
G7 Cm
There's a village green
Cm Fm
It's been a long time
Bb Eb G# Fm
Since I last set eyes on the church with the steeple
G7 Cm
Down by the village green
Cm Fm
Ah la la la la
Bb Eb G# Fm
'Twas there I met a girl call Daisy
G7 Cm
And kissed her by the old oak tree
Cm Fm
Ah la la la la
Bb Eb G# Fm
Although I loved my Daisy, I sought fame
G7 Cm
And so I left the village green
Fm Fm/E Fm Fm/D
I miss the village green, And all the simple people
Cm Cm/B Cm Cm/A
I miss the village green, The church, the clock, the steeple
D G
I miss the morning dew, fresh air and Sunday school
And now all the houses are rare antiquities
Cm Fm Bb Eb
La la la la la
G# Fm G7 Cm
We will laugh and talk about the village green
