[Am]
[D] [G]
[F#] [G] The old hometown [D] looks [G] the same [B] [C] As I step down from the train
And there to meet [D] me is my mama [Em] [D] and my papa [Em] Down [D] the [G] road I look and there runs Mary
[C] Hair of gold, [Bm] black [Am] cherry [G] skirt To touch [Am] the green [D] green grass [G] of [D] home
[E] [D] Yes and [G] they'll all come to meet [A] me
[C] Long preaching son of sweet little [Bm] [Am] [G] old whiskey To touch [Am] the green [D] green grass [G] of [C] home
[G]
[Em] [D] [G] The old house looks so [B] standing [C] Though the paint is cracked [G] and dry
[D] And [G] there's an old oak tree that [E] I [D] used to play on
[E] [F#] [G] Yes, [A] sweet Mary, [C] [G]
[B] black [Am] cherry [G] To touch [Am] the green [D] green grass [G] of home
[E] [F#m] Yes and [G] they'll all come to meet [A] me [C] Long preaching, [G] [C] smiling [Bm] sweetly
[Am] Oh, [G] it's good to touch [Am] the green [D] green grass [G] of [C] home
[G]
[Em] [F#m] [G] Then I awake and look around [B] me [C] Poor grey [G] walls surround me
And I realize I [F#] was [D] only dreaming
[F#] There's [G] a garden there, there's a sad old potbelly
[C] [G] Coming on [C] we'll walk [Bm] at [A] [G] daybreak again I'll touch [Am] the green [D] green [G] grass of home
[E] Yes and [G] they'll all come to see me
[Am] [C] In the shade of an old [Bm] oak [Am] tree [G] As I lay beneath [Am] the green [D] green grass of [C]
home
[Bm] [Am] [G]
