G C The old hometown looks the same as I step down from the trainG D And there to meet me lord, was mama and papaG Bm G C Down the road I look, and there runs Mary, hair of gold and lips like cherriesG D G D It's good to touch the green green grass of home [Bridge]G C Yes they'll all come to meet me arms reaching smiling sweetlyG D G Lord It's good to touch the green green grass of home[Verse 2]C G The old house is still standing though the paint is cracked and dryD And there's that old oak tree that I used to play onG Bm C Down the road I look and there runs Mary, hair of gold and lips like cherriesG D G It's good to touch the green green grass of home [Verse 3]C G Then I awake and look around me, all i got is four grey walls that surround meD And you know that I realize now, that i was only dreamingG C For there's a guard and there's that sad old padre arm in arm we'll walk at daybreakG D G D And again I'll touch the green green grass of home [Outro]G C Yes they'll all come to see me in the shade of that old oak treeG D G C G When they lay me, in the green green grass of home
