(G major) I was eight years old and running
with a dime (C major) in (G major) my (D major) hand
(C major) Into (D major) the bus stop (C major) to pick up
a pa (D major) per for (G major) my (D major) old man (C major)
I'd sit on (G major) his lap in that big old Buick
and steer (C major) as we (G major) drove through town (D major)
He'd tousle (C sharp major) my hair and say (C major) son,
(D major) take a (F sharp major) good (D major) look around, (C major) this is (G major) your hometown
(C major) Your (B major) ho met (G major) own (D major)

In '65 tension was running
high at (B major) my (F sharp major) high school (D major)

There was nothing you could do (B major)
Two cars at (F sharp major) a light on a Sat (D major) urday (G major) night,
(F sharp major) in the back (C major) seat there (G major) was a gun (D major)
Words were passed in a shotgun (B major) (D major) blast
And (G major) troubled times (D major) had
come (C major) to my ho (G major) metown
(C major) My (G major) homet (D major) own

Now (F sharp major) Main Street's (D sharp minor) whitewashed

Verse 4
(F sharp major) Last night me and Kate, we laid in bed
Talking about getting out (C sharp major)
Packing up our bags and
maybe (F sharp major) head (C sharp major) ing south (B major)
I'm (F sharp major) thirty- five, we got a boy,
of (B major) our (F sharp major) own now (C sharp major)
Last night,
I sat him up behind the wheel
And said, (F sharp major) "son,
take a (C sharp major) good look (B major) around
This is (F sharp major) your hometown"
