Now the old hometown looks the same as [C] I step down from [G] the train
And there to meet me is my mama [D] and papa
Now [G] the lady looks and there runs Mary
[C] Hair of gold and lips [G] like cherries
It's good [Em] to touch the [Am] green, [D] green grass [G] of home
[C] [G] [D]
Yes, [G] they'll know what I mean
[C] Arms reaching, smiling sweetly
[Bm]

[G] Down the lane I'll walk with my sweet Mary
[C] Hair of gold and lips like [Bm] cherries

[G] [D]
[G] Then I wake and I look around me
[C] At the four gray walls [G] that surround me
And then I realize that I was only [D] dreaming
Cause [Em]
there's a [G] garden and a sad old broadway
[C] Arm in arm we'll walk [Bm] at daybreak [G] and again
[Em] I'll touch [Am] the green, [D] green grass [G] of home

In [C] the shade of that old [G] oak tree as they lay me
