The postman brought a letter for my darlin
                                   G7
I told him that she left here long ago
   C                                     C C7 C C7
He wondered if I knew where she headed
           G  G7         C
I told him everything I  know
C C7 C C7  C C7 C C7 C  C7    C   C7     G  G7   G  G7
Greener    pastures  is where she can be found
C       F           C     C7 G    G7  C
Greener pastures is where my baby was bound
C                                 C  C7  C  C7
My calloused hands tell the story
C                                 G  G7
Of the hard life and times I have seen
     C                               C C7 C C7
When all around had fields of plenty
C           G                     C
The seeds I sowed always came up lean
C C7 C C7  C C7 C C7 C  C7    C   C7     G  G7   G  G7
Greener    pastures  is where she can be found
C       F           C     C7 G    G7  C
Greener pastures is where my baby was bound

SOLO

C F                                C
I promised her a life of  milk and honey
  F                           C
I promised her a never ending love
  F                           C 
I promised her she'd never be unhappy
   D7                                G
I guess sometimes a promise ain't enough
C C7 C C7  C C7 C C7 C  C7    C   C7     G  G7   G  G7
Greener    pastures  is where she can be found
C       F           C     C7 G    G7  C
Greener pastures is where my baby was bound
