INTRO: G C G C G D

The old home town looks the same, as I step down from the train
G G/B D
And there to meet me is my mama and papa
G G/B G7 C C/B
Down the road I look and there runs Mary, hair of gold and lips like cherries
G/B G D G
It's good to touch the green green grass of home
G/B G C C/B
Yes they'll all come to meet me, arms reaching, smiling sweetly
G D G
It's good to touch the green green grass of home
G G/B C G
The old house is still standing, though the paint is cracked and dry

And there's that old oak tree that I used to play on
G G/B G7 C C/B
Down the lane I walk with my sweet Mary, hair of gold and lips like cherries
G/B G D G
It's good to touch the green green grass of home
SPOKEN VERSE:
G G/B C G
Then I awake and look around me, at four gray walls that surround me
G/B D
And I realize, yes I was only dreamin'
G G/B G7 C C/B
For there's a guard and there's a sad old padre, on and on we'll walk at daybreak
G/B G D G
Again I'll touch the green green grass of home
G/B G C C/B
Yes they'll all come to see me, in the shade of that old oak tree
G/B G D D C D C G
As they lay me 'neath the green green grass of home
