Hometown Blues
Steve Earle
[G] I wish I'd never come back home
It don't feel right since I've been [D] grown
[G] I can't find any of my [C] old friends hangin' round
Won't [G] nothing bring you [D] down like your home [G] town [G] I spent some time in New Orleans
I had to live on rice and [D] beans
[G] I hitched through Texas when the [C] sun was beating down Won't [G] nothing bring you [D] down like your home [G] town
Chorus :
[C] Home is where the heart is Ain't that [G] what they always say [A7] My heart lies in broken pieces [D] Scattered along the way
[G] So don't think about me when I'm gone
I don't mind traveling [D] alone
[G] You are the sweetest little [C] thing I ever found
Won't [G] nothing bring you [D] down like your home [G] town
Instrumental (Verse chords)
[C] Home is where the heart is Ain't that [G] what they always say [A7] My heart lies in broken pieces [D] Scattered along the way
[G] So don't think about me when I'm gone
I don't mind traveling [D] alone
[G] You are the sweetest little [C] thing I ever found
Won't [G] nothing bring you [D] down like your home [G] town
