Give Me Back My Hometown Eric Church
Fell in love with this song the first time I heard it, way better than The Outsiders, no question.
Intro: G (Palm mute)
Verse I (Palm Mute):
[G]Damn I used to love this view, sit here and drink a few
[D]Main Street and the high school lit up on Friday night
[G]Down there it's another touchdown, man this year's team is stout
[D]I can hear them goin' crazy, and up here so am I
[Cadd9]Thinkin' about you sittin' there sayin' I hate this, I hate it
[D]If you couldn't stand livin' here why'd you take it, take it
Chorus (Palm Mute):
[G]Give [D]me [Cadd9]back my [G]hometown
'Cuz this is [D]my [G]hometown
Verse II (Palm Mute):
[G]All the colors of my youth the red, the green, the hope, the truth
[D]Are beatin' me black and blue cause you're in every scene
[G]My friends try to cheer me up get together at the Pizza Hut
[D]I didn't have the heart to tell them that was our place
[Cadd9]These sleepy streetlights on every sidewalk side street
[D]Shed a light on everything that used to be
Chorus (Palm Mute):
[G]Give [D]me [Cadd9]back my [G]hometown
'Cuz this is [D]my [G]hometown
