Usually take one last pass through town, stop the car and touch the ground
G                        D                      A
Watch those streetlights swayin' in the breeze

Decorated store fronts, rusty old gas pumps

Try to fill my mind up with somethin' before I go

Picture postcard memories

You know they always make for good company

I don't know no town like the old town

Deep inside me, like rings through an oak tree
            Bm                A                    G
Yeah, there something 'bout a Sunday when I'm gone

That keeps me turnin' home

Verse 3:
D                                            Bm
Standin' here beneath these billboard lights takes me back to those autumn nights
G                                       D                          A
Hometown bleachers packed real tight as we marched down the field
D                                           Bm
My feet would swing from a dropped tailgate out on Airport Road real late
G                                                 D               A
No one could walk a line too straight, we usually made it home al-right
Bm        A                    G  A
And glory days I cant re-live
Bm      A                  G  A
Stories I'll never forget

D                           F#
And I don't know no friends like the old friends
Bm              A          G      Gm
I never seem to laugh now, like I did with them
D                   F#
But deep inside me, a piece of history
        Bm                A                         G
Yeah, I hear their voices even though they're gone

And it keeps me turning home

Verse 4:
D                                Bm
Never twice the same way does it start and sure enough she stole my heart
G                              D                   A
On the old gym floor, spinnin' round and round one night
D                                      Bm
And though we both tried hard to wait, we sure did love the taste
G                                D                      A
Of the sweet love being made and prayin' I got it right
Bm    A                    G  A
Gradu-ation came and went
Bm         A                      G  A
Along with all the time we spent

D                        F#
And I don't know no love like the first love
Bm                     A          G                Gm
When I think about the best times, she's the one I think of
D               F#
Deep inside me, all though the taste is bittersweet
  Bm              A                       G
I see her smilin' even though she's gone
       A                      D  G
And it keeps me turning home,      yeah
Bm     A
And it keeps me turning home
