Chorus:
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
