Green Green Grass Of Home - Tom Jones

[G] The old home town looks the same as I [C] step down from the [G] train,
and there to meet me is my Mama and [D] Papa
Down the r[G]oad I look and there runs Mary [C]hair of gold and lips like cherries
It's [G] good to touch the [D] green, green grass of [G] home

Yes, they'll all come to [G7] meet me, [C] arms reaching, smiling sweetly
It's [G] good to touch the [D] green, green grass of [G]home

The old house is still standing tho' the paint is cracked and dry, and there's that old oak tree I used to play on
Down the lane I walk with my sweet Mary, hair of gold and lips like cherries
It's good to touch the green, green grass of home

Yes, they'll all come to [G7] meet me, [C] arms reaching, smiling sweetly
It's [G] good to touch the [D] green, green grass of [G]home

Then I awake and look around me, at four grey wall surround me and I realize that I was only dreaming
For there's a guard and there's a sad old padre -
arm in arm we'll walk at daybreak
Again I touch the green, green grass of home

Yes, they'll all come to see me in the shade of that old oak tree
as they lay me neath the green, green grass of home
