Green Green Grass Of Home by Merle Haggard



     Green Green Grass Of Home 





Tuning: E A D G B E
Key: C
 
Starts on a C chord
 
[Verse #1]
G
The old hometown looks the same
     C                  G
As I step down from the train
                                D
There to meet me is my mama and papa
         G
Down the lane I look and there runs Mary
C
Hair of gold and lips like cherry
     G                 D                    G
It's good to touch the green green grass of home
 
 
[Verse #2]
G
The old house is still standing
       C                        G
Though the paint is cracked and dried
                                        D
There's the old oak tree that I used to play on
          G
Down the lane I walk with my sweet Mary
C
Hair of gold and lips like cherry
        G                  D                   G
It's so good to touch the green green grass of home
 
 
[CHORUS]
            G
Yes they'll all come to meet me
         C
Arms out-reached, smelling sweetly
        G                 D                    G
It's so good to touch the green green grass of home
 
[Solo]
G    D    G
 
 
[Verse #3]
G
Then I awake and I look around me
    C                             G
At the four gray walls that surround me
                               D
And I realize that I was only dreamin'
               G
For there's the guard and there's the sad old padre
C
And arm-in-arm, we'll walk at daybreak
          G                     D             G
And again I'll touch the green green grass of home
 
 
[CHORUS]
            G
Yes they'll all come to see me
      C
In the shade of that old oak tree
          G                 D                        C  G
When they lay me 'neath the green green grass of home
