Where The Green Grass Grows(Chords)

	        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
