             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 -
