Tuning: Standard E


Intro: 
Em  D/F#  G  Am (x2)
Em  D/F#  G  Am  B7  B7/Eb  Em  C

[Verse]
Em  D/F#        G       Am
...This is "my home town song"
Em    D/F#      G          Am
...A "how it's like at home song"
Em  D/F#     G     Am   B7
...Spending hours all alone
B7/Eb    Em     C
Waiting by the phone

Em   D/F#            G     Am      
It's hard to say come closer
Em   D/F#        G     Am
When you're so far away
Em   D/F#           G      Am
And sometimes it's hard to remember that
B7   B7/Eb         Em       C
...Tomorrow's as close as yesterday

[Chorus]
Am      G
This is my home town
C      G   D       
This is my home town
Am      G 
This is my home town
C         G
This is...
D       Em    [Same chord progression as the intro]
My hometooown...

[Verse]
I'm dossing up and down these streets,
Where nothing ever seems to change
Where wet green grass meets dust and dirt
That's where love no longer hurts

I've never been a loner,
At least I've never wanted to be one
So whatever you do, remember one thing:
My home is where my heart is and...

[Chorus]
This is my home town...

[Repeat the intro chord progression again]

...A "how it's like at home song"

Waiting by the phone

E     F#              G    A

My home is where my heart is and...

This is my home town...
