Lyrics Forty Shades of Green - Hank Locklin
I
close
my
eyes
and
picture
the
emerald
of
the
sea
From
the
fishing
boats
at
Dingle
to
the
shores
of
Dunardee
I
miss
the
river
Shannon
and
the
folks
at
Skibbereen
The
midlands
and
the
moorlands
with
their
forty
shades
of
green
But
most
of
all
I
miss
the
girl
in
Tipperary
town
And
most
of
all
I
miss
her
arms
and
hair
so
long
and
brown
Again
I
wanna
see
and
do
the
things
we've
done
and
seen
Where
the
breeze
is
sweet
as
Shalimar
and
there's
forty
shades
of
green
[ Piano
]
I
wish
that
I
could
spend
an
hour
at
Dublin's
churching
surf
I'd
love
to
watch
the
farmers
drain
the
bogs
and
spade
the
turf
To
see
again
the
thatching
of
the
straw
the
women
glean
I'd
walk
from
Cork
to
Larne
to
see
the
forty
shades
of
green
But
most
of
all
I
miss
the
girl
in
Tipperary
town
And
most
of
all
I
miss
her
lips
as
soft
as
eiderdown
Again
I
want
to
see
and
do
the
things
we've
done
and
seen
Where
the
breeze
is
sweet
as
Shalimar
and
there's
forty
shades
of
green
