[C] _ _ [G] _ [Am] _ [G] _ The old hometown _ looks the same as [C] I step down [G] from a train
There to meet me
Is my mama [Em] and [D] papa
_ Down _ [Em] _ [D]
[G] the lane I look and there runs Mary
[C] _ hair of gold
Like cherry [G] it's good to [D] touch the green green grass [G] of all
_ _ The _ old house
Is still standing? _
[C] Though the paint is cracked [G] and dry _
There's the old tree
_ That I used [D] to play on
_ [F#] _ _ [D]
[G] Down the lane I walk with my sweet Mary
[C] hair of gold
And lips like cherry [G] it's so good to touch [D] the green green grass [G] of all
_ _ Yes, they'll all
_ Come to meet me
[C] arms out reached
_ Smiling sweetly it's [G] so good
to touch [D] the green green grass [G] of all
_ _ _ Then _
_ _ _ [Em] _ [D] _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
I awake
_ And I look around me [C] at the four gray walls [G] that surround me _ _
And I realized that _ _ [Bm] I [Em] was only [D] dreaming
But _ _ _ _ [G] there's the guard and
There's the sad old padre
And [C] arm-in-arm
We'll walk at daybreak _
[G] When again, I'll touch
[Em] [D] the green green grass
[G] of home
_ _ _ _ Yes, they'll all
Come to see me [C] in the shade
Of that old old tree [G] when they lay me
[Em] [D] Need the green green grass of all
[C] _ [G] _ [Am] _ _ [G] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
