Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
The old [C]home town still looks the same
As I [F]step down from the [C]train
And there to greet me
is my mama and my [G]papa
Down the [C]lane I look, and there runs Mary
[F]Hair of gold and lips like cherries
It's [C]good to touch
the [G]green, green grass of [C]home
Yes, they'll all come to see me
Arms [F]reaching, smiling sweetly
It's [C]good to touch
the [G]green, green grass of [C]home

[Verse 2]
The old [C]homeplace is still standing
Though the [F]paint is cracked and [C]dry
And there's that old oak tree
that I used to [G]play on
Down the [C]lane I look, and there runs Mary
[F]Hair of gold and lips like cherries
It's [C]good to touch
the [G]green, green grass of [C]home

[Verse 3]
Then I a[C]wake and look around me
To the [F]four gray walls that surround me
And [C]then I realize
that I was only [G]dreaming
For there's a [C]guard
and a sad old padre
[F]Arm in arm, we'll walk at daybreak.
And a[C]gain I'll touch
the [G]green, green grass of [C]home
Yes, they'll all come to see me
In the [F]shade of the old oak tree
They [C]lay me 'neath
the [G]green, green grass of [C]home[F][C]
