The old [F]
hometown looks the same [Gm] [Am] [Bb] as I step down from the [F] train
And there to meet me is my mama [C] and papa
And down [Dm] the road I look and there runs [A] Mary
[Bb]
Hair of gold and lips like [F] cherries
It's good to touch the [C] green, green [F] grass of home
Yes, they've all come to meet me
[Bb] Arms are reached, smiling sweetly
[Gm] [F] It's so good to touch the [C] green, green [F] grass of home
The old house is still standing
[Bb] Though the paint is [F] cracked and dry
And there's that old oak tree that I [C] used to play on
Down [F] the lane I walk with my sweet [Bb] Mary
Hair of gold and lips like [F] cherries
It's good to touch the [C] green, green [F] grass of home
Then I [Bb] awake and look around me
[F] At these four grey walls that surround me
And [C] [Dm] [C] I realize that I was only dreaming
For [F]
there's a garden, there's a sad old padre
[Bb]
Arm in arm we'll walk at [Am] daybreak
[Gm] [F] When again I'll touch [C] the green, green grass of home
[D] [E] [F] They'll all come to see me
[Bb] In the shade of that old [F] oak [Gm] tree
[F] As they lay me
[C] Near the green, green [Bb] grass of home
[Gm] [F]
hometown looks the same [Gm] [Am] [Bb] as I step down from the [F] train
