The old hometown looks the same
G

As I step down from the train
And there to meet me is my mama
G 
A

and papa
D

Down the road I look and there runs Mary
Hair of gold and lips like cherries,
D 
G 
D 
it's good to touch the green,
A 
D 
green grass of home.
Yes, they've all come to meet me,
G 
arms reaching, smiling sweetly.

green grass of home.

The old house is still standing
G

Though the paint is cracked and dry
And there's that old oak tree
G

That I used to play on

G 
my sweet Mary,
hair of gold and lips like cherries,
D

Then I awoke and look around me
G 
There's four gray wall
D

D 
Then I realized,
G 
A 
realized that I'd only been dreaming
D 
For there's a guard and
there's a sad old padre
G 
G 
Arm in arm we'll walk at daybreak
D

Then again I'll touch the green,
D 
D 
grass of home
Yes, they'll all come to see me
G 
Neath the shade of that old oak tree
D 
as they lay me
A 
G 
Need the green, green grass up home
