The Everly Brothers Green River Lyrics

INTRO: G D G D G Am A C G D G A
#1.
My father's father's on the front porch rockin',
a friend drops by, two old men talkin'.
Rememberin' so many other summer days.
Grandma's in the kitchen cookin', the hound dog's
on the back porch lookin'.
The rooster crows the same time every day.
CHORUS:
Green river, you're still my home, I miss you.
Green river, why did I roam? I miss you.
#2.
Sun sets low on blue grass meadows, lamps are
lit and casting shadows.
We say goodbye to another perfect day.
CHORUS:
Green river, you're still my home.
Green river, why did I roam?
Green river, someday I'll come home to stay.
INTERLUDE: G A G Am7 C G
CHORUS:
Green river, you're still my home.
Green river, why did I roam?
Green river, someday I'll come home to stay.
OUTRO:
La-la-la-la-la-la-la..la-la-la-la-la-la-la..

La-la-la-la-la-la-la..la-la-la-la-la-la-la..

La-la-la-la-la-la-la..la-la-la-la-la-la-la..
la-la-la-la-la-la-la..la-la-la-la-la-la-la..(Fade.)
