 D  
The old home town looks the same  
     G                   D  
as I step down from the train 
                                    A     
And there to meet me is my mama and papa 
          D                  
Down the road I look and there runs Mary, 
 G  
hair of gold and lips like cherries. 
      D                 A                    D  
It's good to touch the green, green grass of home.

It's good to touch the green, green grass of home.

The old house is still standing,

though the paint is cracked and dry, 
                                             A       
And there's that old oak tree that I used to play on

Down the lane I walk and with my sweet Mary,

hair of gold and lips like cherries.

Bridge: 
 D  
And then suddenly I awake and look around me 
        G                    D  
at the four gray walls that surround me  
                               A  
and I realize that I was only dreaming. 
               D  
For there's a guard and there's a sad old padre 
 G  
Arm and arm we'll walk at daybreak  
 D                           A             D  
again I'll touch the green, green grass of home

 D                                       G  
Yes, they'll all come to see me in the shade of that old oak tree; 
    D                      A                    G    D  
As they lay me 'neath the green, green grass of home.
