Verse 1
(D major) An d it's home, (A major) boys, home (D major)
Home I'd like to be,
(G major) home for a (D major) while in me own country
(A major) Where the (D major) oak and the (G major) ash
and the (D major) bunny and the tree
(A major) They're (D major) all a (G major) -growin'
green in me (A major) own country
(D major) There was an apprentice
lived in (G major) Strawberry Lane
(D major) Loved (A major) by her master and
her (D major) mistress the same
Until a young (G major) sailor lad
came (D major) sailing o 'er the (A major) sea
And (D major) that was the begin (G major) ning of (A major) her misery
(D major) And it's home, boys, home, home
I'd like to be
Home (G major) for a (D major) while in me own country
(A major) Where the (D major) oak and the (G major) ash
and the (D major) bunny elm tree
(A major) They're (D major) all a -growing
green (G major) in me (A major) own country
(D major) As young they'd been innocent,
she (G major) thought it was no (D major) harm
To go (A major) into bed or to (D major) keep his back warm
He hugged her and he (G major) kissed her
and he (D major) called her his dear
(A major) Said, I (D major) wish me love this (G major) night
had been as (A major) long as a (D major) year
And it's home, boys, home, home
I'd like to be
Home (G major) for a (D major) while in me own country
(A major) Where the (D major) oak and the (G major) ash
and the (D major) bunny elms greed (A major)
They're (D major) all a -growing
green (G major) in me (A major) own country
(D major) T 'was early next mornin'
this (G major) sailor lad arose (D major)
And (A major) into her apron he put
(D major) handfuls of gold
Take this, me (G major) dear,
for the (D major) mischief that I've done
(A major) Last (D major) night I (G major) may have left you
with a (A major) daughter or a (D major) son
And it's home, boys, home
Home, I'd like to be
Home (G major) for a (D major) while in me own country
(A major) Where the (D major) oak and the (G major) ash
and the (D major) bunny and the tree
(A major) They're (D major) all a -growin'
(G major) green in me (A major) own country
(D major) And if it be a girl child,
(G major) dandle her on your (D major) knee
And (A major) if it be a male child,
(D major) call him after me
And when he is a (G major) man,
you can (D major) dress him up in blue
(A major) He'll go (D major) skippin' up the (G major) riggin'
like his (A major) daddy used to (D major) do
And it's home, boys, home
Home I'd like to be
Home (G major) for a (D major) while in me own country
(A major) Where the (D major) oak and the (G major) ash
and the (D major) bonnie elm tree
(A major) They're (D major) all a -growin'
(G major) green in me (A major) own country
(D major) And it's all my home,
a home I'd like to be
Home (G major) for a (D major) while in me own country
(A major) Where the (D major) oak and the (G major) ash
and the (D major) bunny and the tree
(A major) They're (D major) all a -growin' (G major) green
in me (A major) own country
(D major)
