Capo 2

Intro:

D5  A5  E5  G5
D5  A5  G5

B5     A5
No one knows
       G5                 D5
What's waiting where you go
         B5              A5                G5
Nothings certain but the fact that you're leaving

B5            A5
But still you roam
         G5                   D5
From the straight and narrow road
       B5              A5               G5
Riding nothing but the lies that you believe in

B5          A5
Frame after frame
    G5                D5
The pictures still remain
B5             A5                     G5
Photographs of all the hearts you've broken

B5        A5
Frozen in time
        G5                 D5
Are the ghosts you left behind
B5              A5                 G5
Waiting for the words you left unspoken

Lead-in to chorus:   Em   A

D5        A5
Dear Home Town
        E5               G5
I never meant to let you down
       D5        A5         G5
When I sold my soul for a song
D5                 A5
The dreams are to blame
           E5         G5
They still linger and remain
       D5          A5                G5
In the heart of a child who's been gone
G5    A5    D5
Dear Home Town

B5       A5
Tell the girl
       G5                 D5
It's a wide and wondrous world
B5             A5                 G5
Room enough to leave a life your hating

B5                    A5
The highway runs both ways
            G5                  D5
And there's seat's left on the train
B5                    A5                G5
If you take it to the station, I'll be waiting

(Chorus)
D5        A5
Dear Home Town
        E5               G5
I never meant to let you down
       D5        A5         G5
When I sold my soul for a song
D5                 A5
The dreams are to blame
           E5         G5
They still linger and remain
       D5          A5                G5
In the heart of a child who's been gone
G5    A5    D5
Dear Home Town

Bridge:
B5  A5   G5


(nothing)
Tell my Mom
                       D5
That I miss her lovin' smile
        B5
Tell my Father
       A5               G5
That I really miss his laughter

(verse chords here)
        B5             A5
Tell my sisters and my brothers
        G5                   D5
Tell my friends and all the others
           B5          A5        G5
That we'll meet in the Sweetest Hereafter

(Double oh no no no)

E5   G5   E5   A5
