(The low bass D string is only played at the very end of the song, in the last chord
 which gives a very nice effect of relaxation!!)
I've indicated the fingering of the right hand for the intro.
During the rest of the song the thumb (p) always plays the 4th and 5th,
and the three fingers(i,m,a) play 1st, 2nd, and 3rd string.
The time signature is 8/8 (3+3+2) most of the time,
but sometimes changes to 4/4 for one measure (e.g. bar no 2 in the intro)
('H' means Hammer on)

           Born             with the moon in cancer

          Choose           her a name she will answer to   Call her

  Green, and the winters cannot fade her, call her Green for the
  children who've made her Little

  Green,                   be a gypsy dancer.

            He             went to California

           Hearing that everything's warmer there          so you

  Write him a letter and say 'her heyes are blue', he sends you a poem
  and she's lost to you

    Little green     He's a non-conformer.           Just a Little

  Green  like the color when the spring is born       There'll be

  Crocuses to bring to school tomorrow             Just a Little

  Green  like the nights when the northern lights perform. There'll be

  icicles and birthday clothes, and sometimes there'll be sorrow

            Child with a child       pretending

            Weary    of lies you're sending  home           so you

  sign all the papers in the family name, you're sad and you're
  sorry but you're not ashamed, Little

    Green                     have a happy ending    Just a Little

  Green  like the color when the spring is born       There'll be

  Crocuses to bring to school tomorrow             Just a Little

  Green  like the nights when the northern lights perform. There'll be

  icicles and birthday clothes, and sometimes there'll be sorrow
