[Verse]

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


[Chorus]

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


[Verse 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.


[Chorus 2]

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

[Verse 3]

         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.


[Chorus 3]

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