[N] The [G] old [G#] hometown looks the [C#] same as [A#] I step down from [C#] the train
And there to meet me is my mama [G#] and my papa
Down the [C#] road I look and there runs Mary
[F#] Hair of gold and lips [A#] like [C#] cherries
It's good to touch [G#] the green, green [C#] grass of home
The old house is still standing, though [A#] the paint is [G#] cracked and [C#] dry
And there's that old oak tree that I used to [G#] play on
[A#] Down the [C#] lane I walk with my sweet Mary
[F#] Hair of gold and lips [A#] like cherries
[C#] It's good to touch [G#] the green, green [C#] grass of home
Yes, they'll all come to see me
[F#] Arms reaching, smiling sweetly
[C#] It's good to touch [G#] the green, [C#] green grass of home
[Fm] Then [C#] I'll awake and look around [G#] me
The [A#] coal gray [A] walls [C#] that surround me
And then I realize I was [G#] only dreaming
[C#] For there's a [G#] garden, [C#] the saddle [F] part [F#] ring
Arm in arm I walk [A#] at [C#] daybreak again
I touch [G#] the green, [C#] green grass of home
Yes, they'll all come to see [D#] me
[F#] In the shade of the old [A#] oak tree [C#] as they lay me
[G#] Need the green, green [C#] grass of [F#] home
[C#]
And there to meet me is my mama [G#] and my papa
Down the [C#] road I look and there runs Mary
[F#] Hair of gold and lips [A#] like [C#] cherries
It's good to touch [G#] the green, green [C#] grass of home
The old house is still standing, though [A#] the paint is [G#] cracked and [C#] dry
And there's that old oak tree that I used to [G#] play on
[A#] Down the [C#] lane I walk with my sweet Mary
[F#] Hair of gold and lips [A#] like cherries
[C#] It's good to touch [G#] the green, green [C#] grass of home
Yes, they'll all come to see me
[F#] Arms reaching, smiling sweetly
[C#] It's good to touch [G#] the green, [C#] green grass of home
[Fm] Then [C#] I'll awake and look around [G#] me
The [A#] coal gray [A] walls [C#] that surround me
And then I realize I was [G#] only dreaming
[C#] For there's a [G#] garden, [C#] the saddle [F] part [F#] ring
Arm in arm I walk [A#] at [C#] daybreak again
I touch [G#] the green, [C#] green grass of home
Yes, they'll all come to see [D#] me
[F#] In the shade of the old [A#] oak tree [C#] as they lay me
[G#] Need the green, green [C#] grass of [F#] home
