Lyrics

The (G)old home town looks the same

as I (C)step down

from the (G)train,

and there to meet me

is my ma ma

and (D)pa pa.

(C)Down (D)the (G)road I look and there runs Mar y,

hair of (Ebdim)gold and (C)lips like (Bm)cher (Am)ries.

It’s (G)good to touch the (D7)green, green grass of (C)home.

(C)Yes, (D)they’ll (G)all

come to meet me,

arms (C)reach ing,

smil ing sweet ly.

(Am)It’s (G)good to touch the (D)green, green (Am7)grass (D)of (C)home.

The (G)old house town is still stand

though the (C)paint is

cracked and (G)dry,

and there’s that old oak

is that I used

to (D)play on.

(C)Down (D)the (G)lane I walk with my sweet Mar y,

hair of (Ebdim)gold and (C)lips like (Bm)cher (Am)ries.

It’s (G)good to touch the (D7)green, green grass of (C)home.

(C)Yes, (D)they’ll (G)all

come to meet me,

arms (C)reach ing,

smil ing sweet ly.

(Am)It’s (G)good to touch the (D)green, green (Am7)grass (D)of (C)home.

Then (C)shade

of that old oak (Bm)tree (Am)as they (G)lay me

’neath the (D7)green, green (Am7)grass (D)of (G)home.
