"Our precious girl......"
Riff 2 (acoustic) - Use the provided strumming pattern, and
use the lyrics as a reference to timing.
Guitar one plays the chords for the verse like this. Full

Guitar two strums the full chords alone.

[Am]Wasn't there a [C]dream, last night
[G]Like a spring never [Am]ending
Still the water runs clear through my [C]mind
On the [G]field I can see a [Am]fiddler
The fiddler on the [C]green
And a [G]saaaad [Am]boy
I took him too [C]early
Would you [G]mind
Would you [F]mind
Would you [G]mind
If I take you

Note: The notes here fade into each other, so listen when to change
notes in the transistions, but they're too faded for me to hear.

[Am]Isn't it a [C]sham[G]e

And still [G]waiting for [Am]you
Oh I really did fail for the [C]first time

The fiddler on the [C]green
The [G]fiddler on the [F]green
It would be[G] nice ...
Take my hand!
