Green, Green Grass of Home Chords by Charley Pride

[Start]

[Verse]
                   A                        D     
It's good to touch the green green grass of ■ home
             D                  
The old home town looks the same
     G                  D    
As I step down from the train
                                     A7   
And there to meet me is my mamma and pappa
             D                          G   
And down the road I look and there runs Mary
                 G                 
Hair of gold and lips like cherries
     D                 A7          Asus4 D      
It's good to touch the green green grass of home
Bm7 D                          
Yes they'll all come to meet me


[Chorus]
G                             
Arms areaching smiling sweetly
D                      A7          G     D      
It's good to touch the green green grass of home


[Verse]
                                D7
The old house is still standing ■ 
            G                    D  
'though the paint is cracked and dry
            D                
And there's that old oak tree
               A7     
That I used to play on
             D                             G   
And down the lane I walk with my why sweet Mary


[Chorus]
        G                          
Hair of gold and lips like cherries
     D                 A7                D      
It's good to touch the green green grass of home
    D                          
Yes they'll all come to meet me
G                             
Arms areaching smiling sweetly
D                      A7                D  B7  
It's good to touch the green green grass of home


[Bridge]
             E          E7    
Then I awake ■ and look around
       A               E       
At the grey walls that surround
                               B7      
And I realize that I was oonly dreaming
              E                             A    
For there's a guard and a there's a sad old padre


[Chorus]
                         E       
Arm in arm we'll walk at daybreak
                     B7                E      
Again I'll touch the green green grass of home
                        E7    
Yes they'll all come to see me
       A                         
In the shade of that old oak tree
   E                      B7                A       Gbm E
As they lay me 'neath the green green grass of home ■   ■
