Intro:
Lab Sibm/Lab Lab Sibm/Lab
Lab Mib7
Lab
The old home town looks the same
Reb Lab
As I step down from the train,
Reb/Lab Lab Mib/Sol Mib7
And there to meet me is my Mama and Papa
Lab Lab7
Down the road I look and there runs Mary,
Reb Reb6 Reb Dom Sibm
Hair of gold and lips like cherries
Lab Mib7
It's good to touch the green,
Lab Reb/Lab Lab
green grass of home
Mib7sus4 Lab Lab7
Yes, they'll all come to meet me,
Reb Dom Sibm
Arms reaching, smiling sweetly
Lab Mib7
It's good to touch the green, green,
Lab Mib7
grass of home
Lab
The old house is still standing,
Reb Lab
Though the paint is cracked and dry,
Mib7
And there's that old oak tree that I used to play on
Lab Lab7
Down the lane I walk with my sweet Mary,
Reb Reb6 Reb Dom Sibm
Hair of gold and lips like cherries
Lab Mib7 Lab
It's good to touch the green, green grass of home
Sibm/Fa Sol7 Lab
Then I awake and look around me
Reb Lab
At four grey walls that surround me,
Reb/Lab Lab Lab7+ Lab6 Mib7
And I realize: yes, I was only dreaming
Lab Lab7
For there's a guard and there's a sad old padre
Reb Dom Sibm Lab
On and on, we'll walk at daybreak
Mib7
Again I'll touch the green,
Lab Reb/Lab Lab
green grass of home
Mib7sus4 Lab Lab7
Yes, they'll all come to see me
Reb Dom Sibm
In the shade of that old oak tree
Lab Mib7
As they lay me neath the green,
Reb Dom Sibm Lab7
green grass of home
