Where The Green Grass Grows

Intro (after fiddle solo): G  D  Em  C
                           G  D  C   D


G           D           Em                  C
Six lanes, tail lights, red ants marching into the night
G                      D               C
They disappear to the left and right again
G              D              Em               C
Another supper from a sack, a ninety-nine cent heart attack
G                              D
I got a pounding head and and aching back
         C       G          Am         D
And the camel's buried in a big straw stack



Chorus:
    G                         D
But I'm gonna live where the green grass grows
C                 D
Watch my corn pop up in rows
G               D                  C   D
Every night be tucked in close to you
G                        D
Raise our kids where the good Lord's blessed
C                         D
Point our rocking chairs towards the west
G                           D               C  G
Plant our dreams where the peaceful river flows
           Am    D      G
Where the green grass grows


(repeat intro chords)


G                 D          Em             C
Well I'm from, a map dot, a stop sign on a blacktop
G                      D                C
I caught the first bus I could hop from there
G                          D
But all of this glitter is getting dark
Em                              C
There's concrete growing in the city park
G                   D
I don't know who my neighbors are
             C           G        Am          D
And there's bars on the doors and bars on my heart
