Daddy,
G
D
won't you take me back to Muhlenberg County
Down by the green river
A
D
where paradise lay
I'm sorry, my son,
G
D
but you're too late in asking
Mr. Peabody's coal train
A
D
has hauled it away
When I was a child,
D
A
D
So many times that my memories are worn
So daddy won't you take me back
A
D
where paradise lay
I'm sorry my son,
G
D
but you're too late in asking
Mr. Peabody's coal train
A
D
is hauled it away
Now sometimes we'd travel
G
D
right down the Green River
To the abandoned old prison
G
D
And we'd shoot with our pistols
G
D
but you're too late in asking
This everybody's cold
A
D
train is hauling away
Well the coal company came with
G
D
the world's largest shovel
And they tortured the timber
A
D
and they stripped all the land
And they covered their coal
D
A
Down by the green river where paradise lay
G
D
but you're too late in askin'
Mr. Peabody's coal train
A
D
is haulin' away
Now when I die,
G
D
let my ashes flow down the green river
Let my soul roll on up to
A
D
the Rochester Dam
I'll be halfway to heaven with
G
D
a paradise waitin'
G
D
back to Muhlenberg County
G
D
but you're too late in asking
A
D
Mr. Peabody's coal train is hauled it away
Thank you.
That's all my Mr. John
for now. applause
