Green, Green Grass Of Home Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]The Old Hometown
The old hometown looks the same
As I [C]step down from the [G]train
And there to meet me
[D]Is my [G]mama and my [D]papa
Down [G]the road I [D]look [G]and there runs Mary,
[C]hair of gold and lips like cherries.
It's [G]good to touch
the [D]green, green grass of [G]home.
Yes, they'll all come to meet me,
arms [C]reaching, smiling sweetly.
It's so [G]good to touch
the [D]green, green grass of [G]home.
The old house is still standing,
though the [C]paint is cracked and [G]dry.
And there's that old oak tree
that I carved my [D]name [Am]on.[D]
Down the street [G]I walk
with my sweet Mary,
[C]hair of gold and lips like cherries,
it's [G]good to touch
the [D]green, green grass of [G]home.
And then I awake and I look around me
[C]at four gray walls
that [G]surround me and I realize
I realize that I was only dreaming
[D]for [Am]ther[D]e's a guard and[G]
there's a sad old padre
Arm in [C]arm we'll walk at daybreak
And [G]once again I'll touch
The [D]green, green grass of [G]home
Yes, they'll all come to see me
In [C]the shade of that old oak tree
As they [G]lay beneath
As beneath the [D]green,
green grass of [G]home
Yes, they'll all come to see me
In [C]the shade of that old oak tree
As they [G]lay beneath
the [D]green, green grass of home
You
