(Verse 1)
Eb*                     Eb                
It’s not much, but it’s mine
Cm             F
It’s all I got and that suits me fine
Eb*              Eb
Cuz I know I got friends
Cm              F
Who’ll stick by til the end, like 

Eb*                 Eb
Burl(Earl?) and his finch(?) 
           Cm           F
Spends his life turning wrenches
       Eb*          Eb
Fixing cars, eating Mars bars 
Cm                 F
Time just moves so slow

(Chorus 1)
        Eb Eb-  C
Here in my home town
                  Eb   Eb-  C
You’re welcome to come on   down
                Eb Eb-  C
We’ll be at the corner  store
         Eb             F
Spilling popcorn on the floor
            Eb                           F 
While we’re staring out the front screen door
F
In my hometown

(Verse 2)
Eb*                 Eb
I remember watching flix
Cm              F
In the front row of the Dixy Theatre
Eb*                 Eb
And then late at night 
Cm              F
Cruising Main with the tunes a blasting

(Chorus 2)
        Eb Eb-  C
Here in my home town
                  Eb   Eb-  C
You’re welcome to come on   down
                Eb  Eb- C
We’ll be at the cor-ner store
             Eb                  F
Shooting the breeze checking the score
       Eb             F
Of the game the night before
F
In my hometown


(Bridge – just acoustic guitar doing arpeggio stuff)
             Eb    Eb-  C
Dontcha know times they changed
        Eb      Eb-  C
Nothing remains the  same
                      Eb Eb-  C
They’re shutting down my old  school
                Eb      F
Where I used to run and play
            Eb         F 
But they’ll never take away
F
My hometown

(Reprise – slight variation on first half of first chorus)
Eb*                 Eb
It’s not much, but it’s mine
Cm              F
It’s all I got and that suits me fine
Eb*                 Eb
Cuz I know I got friends
Cm              F
Who’ll stick by til the bitter end

(Chorus outro)
   Eb Eb-  C
In my home town
                   Eb Eb-   C
Where dreamers are breaking ground
                Eb    Eb-  C
As small as the plans may  be
              Eb            F
They’re still big enough to see


Eb Eb-  C
My home town
                  Eb   Eb-  C
You’re welcome to come on   down
                Eb Eb-  C
We’ll be at the corner  store
                 Eb Eb-  C
Spilling popcorn on the  floor
            Eb                           F
While we’re staring out the front screen door
F
In my hometown
