I'm reminded of the streets of my hometown
            C2 (x32030@1)             G/B (143121@7)        D7sus4 (xx0213@1)          G (320003@1) C/GHow (3x555x@1)they're much like this concrete that's warm beneath my feet 

And how I'm all wrapped up in my mother's face
With a touch of my father just up around the eyes
And the sound of my brother's laugh
But more wrapped up in what binds our ever distant lives 

G (320003@1)   Gmaj7 (xx5432@1) C2But (x32030@1)if I must go

Hometown weather is on TV
And I imagine the lives of the people living there
And I'm curious if they imagine me
Cause they just wanna leave; I wish that I could stay 

But I get turned around
And I mistake my happiness for blessing
But I'm blessed as the poor
Still I judge success by how I'm dressing

So I'll sing a song of my hometown
I'll breathe the air and walk the streets
Maybe find a place to sit and read
And the ants are welcome company
