Verse 1
When (D major) old (G major) (D major) (A major) (D major) friends
like (A major) us (D major) get to (A major) gether (D major)
Ain't it (G major) good how we still remin (D major) isce
Of the childhood that we both remember
Back when we were a (A major) couple of kids (D major)
When bread came right out of the oven,
When apples (G major) came straight
from the tree, (D major)
When (A major) meadows (D major) were
there (A major) for the (D major) running,
And sunsets were something (A major) to see, (D major)
These are the things we remember,
When our hair (G major) has turned
whiter than snow, (D major)
The Green Valley Farm
(A major) s (D major) of our childhood,
the greenest old (A major) garden that grows. (D major)
It was (G major) Green Valley Farms and
tumble (D major) -down barns,
wagons with spokes on the wheels. (A major)
It was wood (G major) -burning fires
and old (D major) rubber tires
that would (E major) roll through the
meadows and fields. (A major)
It was you (D major) racing me
to the old (G major) willow tree
Where the (D major) names of our
sweethearts were carved (A major)
Looking back (D major) sweet and clear
at those (G major) bumper crop years
I re (D major) member the Green (A major) Valley Farm (D major) (G major) (D major) (A major)
(G major) (D major) (E major) (A major)
(D major) (G major) (D major) (A major) (D major) (G major)
(D major) (A major) (D major) (A major) (D major)
When old friends like us get to heaven
We can leave (G major) all our (D major) burdens behind
You (A major) won't (D major) need the
help of those crutches
An (A major) (D major) d (A major) me,
(D major) I'll no longer (A major) be blind (D major)
We'll (A major) (D major) hike to the top of the mountain
We'll (G major) climb every tree that we pass (D major)
We'll fish every creek that we come to
Lord, that's all (A major) that we (D major) ask
Yes, these are the things we remember
These (G major) are the memories that last (D major)
The orchards stretched out forever
In the green valley farm (A major) s of our (D major) past
It was green (G major) valley farms
and (D major) tumble -down
Wagons with spokes on the wheels (A major)
It was wood (G major) burning fires
And old (D major) rubber tires
That we (E major) rode through the
meadows and fields (A major)
It was you (D major) racing me
To the (G major) old willow tree
Where the (D major) names of our
sweethearts were carved (A major)
Looking back (D major) sweet and clear
At those (G major) bumper crop years
I re (D major) member the Green (A major)
Valley Farm (D major) s.
