INTRO: Dm
C
Met a girl in Leningrad
Dm A7
She wasn't bad, and I might add
Bb A D
I found it such a pleasure to be near her
G A D
Just to hear her call my name
G F#m
She was so fair
Em A D
She wore Irish linen in her hair
Dm C
She lived in the valley wide
Dm A7
A country ride, from my side
Bb A D
I spent most of my time thinking of her
G A D
How I loved her, such a shame
G F#m
I'm not there
Em A D
To touch the Irish linen in her hair
CHORUS:
Irish linen
G D
Memories not bad
Em A
Green and red make me sad
D
Irish linen
G D
I would be so glad
Em
Green and red
A D
I could have had her for my own
