D G D
When I was a child my family would travel
A D
Down to western Kentucky where my parents were born.
G D
There's a backwards old town that's often remembered
A D
So many times that my memories are worn.
D G D
- Dad won't you take me back to Mulenburg County,
A D
Down by the Green River where paradise lays.
G D
He said, "I'm sorry my son, but you're too late in askin'.
A D
Mr Peabody's coal-train has hauled it away." -
D G D
Well sometimes we're travel right down to Green River
A D
To the abandoned old prison down by Avery Hill.
G D
Where the air smelled like snakes, we'd shoot with our pistols
A D
But empty pop bottles are all we would kill.
- REPEAT CHORUS -
D G D
Then the coal company came with the worlds largest shovel,
A D
They torchered the timber, stripped all the land.
G D
Dug for the coal til the land was forsaken.
A D
Wrote it all down as a progrss for man.
- REPEAT CHORUS -
D G D
When I die let my ashes float down the Green River,
A D
Let my soul roll on up to the Rodchester Dam.
G D
And I'll be half way to Heaven with paradise waitin'
A D
Just five miles away from whereever I am.
- REPEAT CHORUS TWICE -
enjoy :)
