Green Green Grass Of Home

	  		
      C                     
The old home town looks the same   
     F                  C   
As I step down from the train   
                                       G   
And there to meet me is my mama and my papa   
         C               C7   
Down the road I loko and there runs Mary   
F         
Hair of gold and lips like cherries   
     C                 G           G7       C      F      C   
It's good to touch the green green grass of home   
             C           C7             F   
Yes, they'll all come to meet me, hands reaching, smiling sweetly   
     C                 G           G7      C   
It's good to touch the green green grass of home   
        C                     
The old house is still standing   
     F                  C   
Though the paint is cracked and dry  
                                       G   
And there's that old oak tree that I used to play on  
         C               C7   
Down the lane I walk with my sweet Mary   
F         
Hair of gold and lips like cherries    
     C                 G           G7       C      F      C   
It's good to touch the green green grass of home   
          C                     
Then I awake and look arounde   
     F                  C   
Four gray walls that surround me   
                                       G   
Aand I realize I as only dreaming   
         C               C7   
For there's a guard and there's a sad old padre   
F         
Arm and arm we'll walk at daybreak  
     C           G           G7       C      F      C   
Again I touch the green green grass of home
