Where The Green Grass Grows

[Intro: ]G D G D G D G D G D C D7 G D C D7 G D Em C Six lanes, taillights, red ants marching into the night G D C D They disappeared to the left and right again G D Em C Another supper from a sack, a ninety-nine cent heart attack G D I got a pounding head and and aching back C D7 And the camel's buryied in a big straw stack G D But I'm gonna live where the green grass grows C D Watch my corn pop up in rows G D C D Every night be tucked in close to you G D Raise our kids where the good Lord's blessed C D Point our rocking chairs t'wards the west G D C Plant our dreams where the peaceful river flows Am D7 G Oh, where the green grass grows G D Em C Where I'm from, a map dot, a stop sign on a blacktop G D C D I caught the first bus I could hop from there G D But all of this glitter is getting dark Em C There's concrete growing in the city park G D I don't know who my neighbors are C D7 And there's bars on my door and bars on my heart ***** E-mail me with comments, constructive criticism, etc. ***** ****** Jay Robinson (JMRobinson@txlutheran.edu) ******
