[N] [C#] Green, green [G#] grass [C#] of home
The old hometown looks the same
As [F#] I step down from the [C#] train
And there to meet me is my mama and [G#]
papa
And down the [C#] road I look and there runs Mary
[F#] Hair [C] of gold and [F#] lips like cherries
[C#] It's good to touch the [G#] green, green grass of [C#] home
Yes, they'll all come to meet me
Arms [F#] are reaching, smiling sweetly
[C#] It's good to touch the [G#] green, green grass [C#] of home
The old house is still standard
Though the [F#] paint is cracked [C#] and dry
And there's that old oak tree that I used [G#] to play on
And down the [C#] lane I walk with my sweet Mary
[F#]
[C#]
[G#] The green, green grass [C#] of home
Yes, they'll all come to meet me
Arms [F#] are reaching, smiling sweetly
It's [C#] good to touch the [G#] green, green [C] grass of [C#] home
[A#]
And [D#]
look around at [G#] the grey walls that [D#] surround
And I realize that I was only [A#] [Fm] dreaming
[A#] For as [D#] we're gone,
[G#] arm in arm we'll walk at daybreak [D#] again
I'll touch [A#] the green, green grass [D#] of home
Yes, they'll all come to meet me
In the [G#] shade of that old oak tree as [D#] they lay me
[A#] Deeper green, green grass of home
The old hometown looks the same
As [F#] I step down from the [C#] train
And there to meet me is my mama and [G#]
papa
And down the [C#] road I look and there runs Mary
[F#] Hair [C] of gold and [F#] lips like cherries
[C#] It's good to touch the [G#] green, green grass of [C#] home
Yes, they'll all come to meet me
