E MajorE A/A E MajorE A/A D MajorD A augmentedA E, EsusEsus E/E EsusEsus E/E A augmentedA E MajorE D MajorD A augmentedA

   E MajorE   A augmentedA   A augmentedA    E MajorE  A augmentedA  A augmentedA   D MajorD  A augmentedA   E MajorE
I was eight years old and running with a dime in my hand
EsusEsus   E MajorE  E MajorE    EsusEsus    E MajorE E MajorE   A augmentedA E MajorE  D MajorD
Into the bus stop to picks up a paper for my old man
  E MajorE   A augmentedA  A augmentedA      E MajorE  A augmentedA  A augmentedA     D MajorD      A augmentedA       E MajorE
I'd sit on his lap in that big old Buick and steer as we drove through town
   EsusEsus  E MajorE E MajorE  EsusEsus E MajorE  E MajorE  A augmentedA     E MajorE     D MajorD
He'd tousle my hair and he'd say son take a good look around
    A augmentedA           D MajorD  A augmentedA  E MajorE
This is your hometown, this is your home town
    EsusEsus E MajorE  E MajorE   EsusEsus E MajorE  E MajorE       A augmentedA  E MajorE  D MajorD  A augmentedA
This is your hometown, your hometown, this is your home town

E MajorE A/A E MajorE      A augmentedA    A augmentedA    D MajorD A augmentedA  E MajorE
In 65  tension was running high at my high school
EsusEsus    E MajorE   E MajorE   EsusEsus    E MajorE     E MajorE
There was a lot of fights between the black and white
     A augmentedA    E MajorE     D MajorD
There was nothing you could do
E MajorE  A augmentedA     A augmentedA   E MajorE  A augmentedA    A augmentedA      D MajorD     A augmentedA   E MajorE
Two cars at a light on a Saturday night in the back seat was a gun
EsusEsus E MajorE  E MajorE    EsusEsus E MajorE    E MajorE
Words were passed a  shotgun blast
     A augmentedA   E MajorE  D MajorD    A augmentedA
Troubled times had come to my hometown
D MajorD A augmentedA  E MajorE   EsusEsus E MajorE  E MajorE   EsusEsus E MajorE  E MajorE   A augmentedA E MajorE  D MajorD  A augmentedA
My hometown, my  hometown, my  hometown, my hometown

  F# minorF#m                  A augmentedA
Now Main Street's whitewashed windows and vacant stores
         F# minorF#m            A augmentedA
Seems like there ain't nobody wants to come down here no more
    D MajorD               A augmentedA
They're closing down the textile mill across the railroad tracks
    D MajorD                 A augmentedA         E MajorE
Foreman says these jobs are going boys and they ain't coming back to

E MajorE  A augmentedA  A augmentedA   E MajorE  A augmentedA  A augmentedA   D MajorD  A augmentedA  E MajorE   EsusEsus E MajorE  E MajorE   EsusEsus E MajorE  E MajorE
Your hometown, your hometown, your hometown, your hometown, your hometown
A augmentedA  E MajorE  D MajorD  A augmentedA
your hometown

E MajorE     A augmentedA   A augmentedA    E MajorE  A augmentedA A augmentedA  D MajorD       A augmentedA    E MajorE
Last night me and Kate we laid in bed talking about getting out
EsusEsus E MajorE E MajorE  EsusEsus E MajorE E  A augmentedA   E MajorE    D MajorD
Packing up our  bags maybe heading south
E MajorE  A augmentedA   A augmentedA  E MajorE A augmentedA   A augmentedA   D MajorD  A augmentedA  E MajorE
I'm thirty-five we got a boy of our own now
EsusEsus     E MajorE    E MajorE EsusEsus  E MajorE  E MajorE       A augmentedA     E MajorE     D MajorD
Last night I sat him up behind the wheel and said son take a good look around
    A augmentedA
This is your hometown
