[G] [Am]
[C] [D] [G] [C] [G]
[Em] [F#] The [G] old hometown looks the same as [C] I step down [G] from the train.
And there to meet me is my mama [D] and my papa.
Down [G] the road I look and there runs Mary,
[C] hair of gold and lips [G] like [Am] [G] cherries.
It's good to touch [Am] the green, [D] green [G] grass of home.
Yes, they'll all come to meet [C] [G] me,
[C] arms reaching, smiling [G] sweetly.
[Am] Oh, [G] it's good to touch [Am] the [D] green, green [G] grass of home.
[C]
[G] The old house is still standing, [C] though the paint is cracked [G] and dry.
And there's an old, old tree that I used [D] to play on.
[G] And in the lane I'd walk with my sweet Mary,
[C] hair of gold and lips [G] [Am] like [G] cherries.
It's good to touch [Am] the green, [D] green [G] grass of home.
[D] Yes, [G] they'll all come to meet me,
[C] arms reaching, smiling [Bm] sweetly.
[G] Oh, it's good to touch [Am] the green, [D] green [G] grass of home.
[C] [G]
Then I awake and look around me [C] at four gray [G] walls that surround me.
And I realize I was [D] only dreaming.
[F#] There's [G] a garden and there's a sad old padre.
[C] Arm in arm we'll walk [G] at [C] [G] daybreak again.
I'll touch [Am] the green, [D] green grass [G] of home.
Yes, they'll all come to see me in [C] the shade
of that [G] old, old [C] tree [G] as it lay me.
[Am] Touch the green, green [D] grass [C] of home.
[C] [D] [G] [C] [G]
