_ _ [G] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ The old hometown looks the same _ _ [C] as I step down from the [G] train
_ And there to meet me
Is [Em] my mama [G] and [D] my papa
_ _ _ _ Down the [G] road I look and there runs Mary _
[C] Hair of gold and lips like cherries.
[G] It's good to touch
[D] The green green grass [G] of home
_ _ _ Yes, they'll all
Come to meet me
[C] arms reaching
_ Smiling sweetly
It's [G] so good to touch [D] the green green grass [G] of home
_ _ _ [Em] _ _
The old house
_ Is still standing _
[C] Though the paint is cracked and dry and there's that old oak tree that I
carved [D] my name on
_ _ _ Down [G] the street I walk with my sweet Mary
[C] _ Hair of gold and lips like cherries
[G] It's good to touch [D] the green green grass [G] of home _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ And
Then I awake and I look around me
[C] at four gray walls
That surround me and I realize I
_ Realize that I was only [D] dreaming
_ _ _ _ _ Well, there's [G] a guard and there's a sad old father _
army, [C] Narn
Will walk at daybreak and [G] once again, I'll touch
[D] the green green grass
[G] of home
_ _ _ _ Yes
_ To _ see me
[C] in the shade of
That old oak tree [G] as they lay beneath
[D] the green green grass [G] of home
_ _ _ _ Yes At all
_ To see me
in [C] the shade of
That old oak tree as [G] they lay beneath
[D] the green green _ grass of home _ _
