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



[Refrão]


A 
Yes, they'll all come to meet me 
     D 
Arms reaching, smiling sweetly 
     A                 E                     A 
It's good to touch the green, green grass of home 


[Verso 2]



    A 
The old house is still standing 
           D                    A 
Though the paint is cracked and dry 
                                             E 
And there's that old oak tree that I used to play on 
         A 
There’s a gide and a sudden parking 
D 
On and on I woke till daybreak 
     A 
It's good to touch 
    E                     A 
The green, green grass of home.

A 
Yes, they'll all come to meet me 
     D 
Arms reaching, smiling sweetly 
     A                 E                     A 
It's good to touch the green, green grass of home
