Green Green Grass Of Home Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
The [G]old hometown [D]looks the same
As I [G]step down [D]from the train
And there to meet me is my mama
[G]an d [A]papa[G]
[D]Down the road I look and there runs [G]Mary
Hair of gold and lips like cherries,
[D]it's good to touch [G]the [D]green,
green [A]grass of [D]home.
Yes, they've all come to meet me,
[G]arms reaching, smiling sweetly.
It's [D]good to touch [G]the [D]green,
green [A]grass [Em]of home.[D]
The old house is [G]still [D]standing
[G]Though the paint is cracked and [D]dry
And there's that old oak tree
That I [G]used to [A]play on
[G]Down [D]the lane I walk with
my sweet [G]Mary,
hair of gold and lips like cherries,
it's [D]good to touch [G]the [D]green,
[A]green grass of [G]home.[D][D]
Then I awoke and look around me
[G]There's four gray wall
[D]s that s[G]urround me
[D]Then I realized,
realized that I'd [G]only been dream[A]ing
For [D]there's a guard and
there's a sad old padre
[G]Arm in arm we'll walk [G]at daybreak
[D]Then again [G]I'll touch the green,
[D]grass of hom[D]e
Yes, they'll all come to see me
[G]Neath the shade of that old oak tree
as they [D]lay me
Need the [A]green, green [G]grass up home
