A G

Verse 1
A5                                        
You were too bad for a little square town
           G                                   D2
with your hip-hop hat and your pants on the ground
            A5
Heard you cussed out mamma, pushed daddy around
      G			D2
You tore off in his car
A5
Here you are runnin’ these dirty old streets,.-
    G				D2
Tattoo on your neck, fake gold on your teeth
         A5                                        G					D2
Got the hood here snow, but you cant fool me, we both know who you are

Chorus:
     A5                                    G                     			D2
Homeboy your gonna wish one day you were sittin’ on the gate of a truck by the lake
          A5                                        G  				D2
with your high school flame on one side, ice cold beer on the other
A5                                              G						D2
Ain't no shame in a blue collar forty, little house little kids little small town story
        A5                                      G    			D2             A5  G 
If you don’t ever do anything else for me just do this for me brother, come on homeboy

Verse 2
A5  
I's haulin’ this hay, Uncle Joe's farm
           G                                   D2
Thought of us bare foot kids in the yard
           A5
Man it seems we were just catchin’ snakes in the barn
      G			D2
now you’re caught up in this mess
A5
I can use a little help unloadin’ these bales
    G				D2
I can keep ya pretty busy with a hammer and a nail
        A5                                       
Ain’t a glamorous life, but it’ll keep you outta jail
G                            D2
and not worry us all to death

Chorus

A G 3x

Bridge
A5
You can’t hold back the hands of time
G					D2
Mamas goin’ grey and so is Daddy’s mind
              A5                         
I wish you’d come on back and make it alright
G                         D2
before they’re called…homeboy

A G D A (rest of song follows this pattern)

Homeboy

Come on homeboy

Homeboy

Come on homeboy  



(other things to consider are little adds like a vibrato on the G on your Low E 
string after the D in both the outro and during the song like after the line "tore 
off in his car"
