Verse 1
The old (C major) home town still looks the same
As I (F major) step down from the train (C major)
And there to greet me
is my mama and my (G7) papa
Down the lane (C major) I look, and there runs (C7) Mary
(F major) Hair of gold and lips like cherries
It's (C major) good to touch
the (G7) green, green grass of (C major) home
Yes, they'll all come to see me (C7)
Arms (F major) reaching, smiling sweetly
It's good (C major) to touch
the (G7) green, green grass of (C major) home
Verse 2
The old home (C major) place is still standing (C7)
Though the paint (F major) is cracked and dry (C major)
And there's that old oak tree
that I used to (G7) play on
Down the lane (C major) I look, and there runs (C7) Mary
(F major) Hair of gold and lips like cherries
It's (C major) good to touch
the (G7) green, green grass of (C major) home

Verse 3
Then I a (C major) wake and look around me (C7)
To the (F major) four gray walls that surround me
And (C major) then I realize
that I was only dreaming (G7)
For there's a guard (C major)
and a sad old padre (C7)
(F major) Arm in arm, we'll walk at daybreak.
And a (C major) gain I'll touch
the (G7) green, green grass of home (C major)
Yes, they'll all come to see me (C7)
In the (F major) shade of the old oak tree
They (C major) lay me 'neath
the (G7) green, green grass of (C major) home (F major) (C major)
