Verse 1→ Phiên khúc

When I was a child, the family would travel
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
down to western Kentucky where my parents were born.
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
There's a backwards old town that's often remembered,
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
so many times that my mem'ries are worn.
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
And, daddy, won't you take me back to Muhlenberg County,
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
down by the Green River where Paradise lays?
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
Well, I'm sorry, my son, but you're too late in asking,
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
Mister Peabody's coal train has hauled it away.
Verse 2→ Phiên khúc
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
Well, sometimes we'd travel right down the Green River
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
to the abandoned old prison down by Adrie Hill.
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
Where the air smelled like snakes and we'd shoot with our pistols
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
but empty pop bottles was all we would kill.
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
And, daddy, won't you take me back to Muhlenberg County,
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
down by the Green River where Paradise lays?
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
Well, I'm sorry, my son, but you're too late in asking,
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
Mister Peabody's coal train has hauled it away.
[Verse 3] (ATTENTION: in recording there is only 1 G-chord at the end)
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
The coal company came with the world's largest shovel
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
and they tortured the timber and stripped all the land.
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
And they dug for their coal 'til the land was forsaken,
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
they wrote it all down as the progress of man.
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
And, daddy, won't you take me back to Muhlenberg County,
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
down by the Green River where Paradise lays?
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
Well, I'm sorry, my son, but you're too late in asking,
ch]G[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
