The Green, Green Grass of Home - Porter Wagner - 50 bpm

The 
G
old home 

town looks the 
G7
same,

 

As I 
C
step down 

from the 
G
train

There to 
G
meet me 

is my 

mama 

and 
D7
papa

Down the 
G
road I 

look and 
G7
there runs 

Mary

 
C
Hair of 

gold and 

lips like 

cherries

It's 
G
good to 

touch the 
D7
green, green 

grass of 
G
home

	Yes they'll 
G
all 

come to 
G7
meet me 

.. arms 
C
reaching 

smiling 

sweetly

	It's 
G
good to 

touch the 
D7
green, green 

grass of 
G
home

The 
G
old house 

is still 

standing, 

Though the 
C
paint is 

cracked and 
G
dry

And there's that 
G
old oak 

tree 

that I 

used to 
D7
play on

Down the 
G
lane I 

walk and with 
G7
my sweet 

Mary

 
C
Hair of 

gold and 

lips like 

cherries

It's 
G
good to 

touch the 
D7
green, green 

grass of 
G
home

Then I a
G
wake and 

look a
G7
round me

At the 
C
four gray 

walls that sur
G
round me

And I 
G
rea

lize that 

I was 

only 
D7
dreaming

For there's a 
G
guard and 

there's a 
G7
sad old 

padre

 
C
Arm and 

arm we'll 

walk at 

daybreak

A
G
gain I'll 

touch the 
D7
green 

grass of 
G
home

	Yes they'll 
G
all 

come to 
G7
see me 

in the 
C
shade 

of that 

old oak 

tree

	As they 
G
lay me 

beneath the 
D7
green, green 

grass of 
G
home
