G C G Pretty green hills pretty green hills C G He said take me into them pretty green hills
Verse 1
C G He stood at the crossroads where his bus had left him C G A battered old suitcase sat there by his side C G I saw in the distance a rainstorm was brewing C G I pulled off the highway to give him a ride
Verse 2
C G Well I got out to help him climb into my pickup C G I covered his suitcase with a tarp in the back C G He huffed and he puffed as he got himself settled C G He said I got old and I'm down in my back
Verse 3
C G Well his beard was all white and his face was all wrinkled C G He said I was born here and then he grew still C G I asked him how far he was planning on going C G He said take me into them pretty green hills
Chorus
C G Pretty green hills pretty green hills C G He said take me into them pretty green hills
Verse 4
C G Well he smiled as he sat there and stared out the window C G The corn was knee high and the fields were all green C G He never said much but his face told a story C G I left him alone with his own private dreams
Verse 5
C G Well I kept on driving and he kept on smiling C G We drove up and up through the hills of his youth C G I asked him if he had some kinfolks around there C G He said I don't think so to tell you the truth
Verse 6
C G Well along about dark I was needing a rest stop C G I stopped at a store getting ready to close C G I started to ask him if he needed something C G But he was asleep so I just let him dose
Verse 7
C G I filled up my truck and I found I was hungry C G I bought me some cheese and cold drinks and bread C G Went back to my truck and I shook the old stranger C G But I soon discovered the old man was dead
Verse 8
C G Well I called the sheriff and they took him somewhere C G I had to keep rolling we all have our bills C G A couple weeks later and somebody told me C G They buried him there in them pretty green hills
Chorus
C G Pretty green hills pretty green hills C G They buried him there in them pretty green hills
