Let's sing in case you didn't hear it the first time.
When I was a child, my family would travel down to western Kentucky where my parents were born.
There's a backwards old town that's often remembered so many times that my memory don't hold.
Daddy won't you take me back [G] to [D] Muenberg County down by the Green River where pure
dies the rain.
I'm sorry my son, but you better ask him, Mr.
Peabody's poor train's holding you awake.
Sometimes we'd travel [G] right down the [D] Green River to the abandoned old prison down by
the river.
When they'd hurt me like snakes, [G] we'd shoot with [D] our pistol, but empty five bottles was
all that we'd kill.
Daddy won't you take me [G] back to Muenberg [D]
County down by the Green River where pure
dies the rain.
I'm sorry my son, [G] but you better [D] ask him, Mr.
Peabody's poor [A] train's holding [D] you awake. Jason Wilber

coal company came [G] with a [D] world's largest shovel, tortured the timber, [A] stripped [D] all the land.
They dug for the coal, the [G] land [D] was forsaken, then they wrote it all down as the progress of man.
Daddy won't you take [G] me back to [D] Muenberg County down by the Green River [A] where pure
[D] dies the rain.
I'm sorry my son, [G] but you better [D] ask him, Mr.
Peabody's poor [A] train's holding [D] you awake.

When [G] [D]
[A] [D]
the valley marshes [G] flood down [D] the Green River, let my soul roll out to the right
chest of Dan.
I'll [Dm] be halfway to heaven [G] with a thirsty [Dm] ass waiting, just five miles [D] away from where blue lies.
Daddy won't you take me [G] back to [D] Muenberg County down by the Green River where pure
dies the rain.
