[A] I was eight years old and running with a [D] _ [A] diamond mind.
[E] _ _
I bust off the page, up a paper [A] from my mind.
_ _ [D] _ _
_ [A] I sat on this line, that big old beautiful _ [D] steer as [A] we drove through [E] town.
_ Tied up my hair, say _ something, [A] good luck [D] around.
_ This is [A] your hometown, _ _ _ _ [F#m] this is [A] your [E] hometown, _ _ this is your hometown, _ _ _ [A] this is your _ [D] hometown.
I was nine and [A] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ sixty-five, tension was running high [D] at my [A] _ _ [E]
school.
_ There was a lot of fights between the black and white, [A] there was nothing you [D] could do.
_ _ [A] Cars hit a light on a Saturday night, [D] in the backseat [A] there [C#m] was a [E] gun.
_ Words were passed, shotgun blasts, [A] troubled times they [D] had caused.
_ [A] My hometown, _ _ _ _ [D] my _ [A] _ [C#m] hometown, [E] _ _ my _ hometown, _ _ _ [A] my _ _ _ [D]
hometown.
_ _ [A] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [F#m] Our main street's a whitewashed window, _ [A] and vacant store. _
_ _ [F#m] Seems like there ain't nobody, _ want to [A] come down here no more. _
_ _ [D] They're closing down, the textile mill, [A] across the railroad tracks.
_ _ [D] Woman says these jobs are going boys, [A] and they ain't coming [E] _
back.
[A] To your hometown, _ _ _ _ [D] to [A] your hometown, [E] _ _ to your hometown, _ _ _ [A] to your _ [D]
hometown.
_ _ _ [A] _ _ _ _
_ _ Last night in K, we laid in bed, [D] talking about [A] getting _
[E] out.
_ Packing up our bags, [A] maybe _ heading _ [D]
south.
_ _ [A] Thirty-five, she got up for [D] a vow.
[A] _ _ _
[E] _ Last night I sat her up, behind the wheel, [A] said son take a good look [D]
around.
_ _ _ _ _ [A] This is your hometown.
