Verse 1
G
D
my family would travel down to western Kentucky
A
D
where my parents were born
There's a backwards old town
G
D
that's often remembered,
A
D
so many times my memories are worn
Daddy, won't you take me back
G
D
to Muhlenberg County
Down by the Green River
A
D
where paradise lay
I'm sorry, my son,
G
D
but you're too late in asking
Mr. Peabody's gold train is
A
D
hauling away
Sometimes we'd travel right
G
D
down the Green River
To an abandoned old prison
A
D
down by Andrew Hill
Where the air smelled like snakes
G
D
and we'd shoot with our pistols
But empty pop bottles
A
D
was all we'd kill
Daddy won't you take me back
G
D
to Millburg County
Down by the green river
A
D
where paradise lay
Well, I'm sorry, my son,
G
D
but you're too late in asking

A
D
Then the coal company came with
G
D
the world's largest shovel
They tortured the timber
A
D
and stripped all the land
They dug for their coal
G
D
till the land was forsaken
And wrote it all down as
A
D
the progress of man
And Daddy, won't you take me back
G
D
to Muldenburg County
Down by the Green River
A
D
where paradise lay
I'm sorry my son,
G
D
but you're too late in asking
Mr. Peabody's coal train's
A
D
hauled it away
When I die, let my ashes flow
G
D
down the Green River
A
D
Let my soul roll up to Rochester Dam
I'll be halfway to heaven
G
D
with paradise waitin'
A
D
Just five miles away from wherever I am
And Daddy, won't you take me back
G
D
to Muhlenberg County
Down by the green river
A
D
where paradise lay
I'm sorry my son,
G
D
but you're too late in asking
