When I
was a child my family would travel
G7

Down
to Western Kentucky where my parents were born
F C
And
there's a backwards old town that's often remembered
G7
C
So
many times that my memories are worn
F
C
And
daddy won't you take me back to Muhlenberg County
G7 C
Down
by the Green River where Paradise lay
F
C
Well
I'm sorry my son but you're too late in asking
G7
C
Mister
Peabody's coal train has hauled it away
Well
sometimes we'd travel right down the Green River
To the
abandoned old prison down by Adrie Hill
Where
the air smelled like snakes and we'd shoot with our pistols
But
empty pop bottles was all we would kill
repeat
#2
Then
the coal company came with the world's largest shovel
And
they tortured the timber and stripped all the land
Well,
they dug for their coal till the land was forsaken
Then
they wrote it all down as the progress of man
repeat
#2
When I
die let my ashes float down the Green River
Let my
soul roll on up to the Rochester dam
I'll
be halfway to Heaven with Paradise waiting
Just
five miles away from wherever I am
repeat
#2
