Verse 1
(D major) The old (A major) ho metown looks (D major) the same (A major)
(D major) As I step (G major) down from the train (D major)
And there to meet me is
my mama and (A major) papa
Down the (D major) road I look and there runs Mary,
(G major) hair of gold and lips like cherries,
(E minor) it's (D major) good to touch the (A major) green,
green grass of (D major) home.
Yes, they'll all come to meet me,
arms reach (G major) ing, smiling sweetly,
it's good (D major) to touch the green green grass (A major) of (D major) home.
The old house is still standing,
though the (G major) paint is cracked and dry (D major)
And there's that old oak tree
that I used to (A major) play on
Down the (D major) lane I walk with
my sweet Mary, (G major)
hair of gold and lips like cherries,
(E minor) it's (D major) good to touch the (A major) green,
green grass of home. (D major)
Then I awake and look around me, (G major)
at four gray walls that surround me, (D major)
and I realize that I was only (A major) dreaming.
Well, there's (D major) a garden,
and there's a sad old pottery
Arm (G major) in arm, we'll walk at daybreak
Again, (D major) I'll touch the (A major) green,
green grass (D major) of home
Yes, they'll all come to see me
In the (G major) shade of that old oak tree
(D major) As they lay me
Near the (A major) green, green grass of home (G major) (D major)
