Hometown Blues
by Steve Earle
G I wish I'd never come back home
It don't feel right since I've been D grown
G I can't find any of my C old friends hangin' round
Won't G nothing bring you D down like your home G town
I spent some time in New Orleans
I had to live on rice and beans
I hitched through Texas when the sun was beating down
Won't nothing bring you down like your hometown
C Home is where the heart is
Ain't that G what they always say
C My heart lies in broken pieces
D Scattered along the way
So don't think about me when I'm gone
I don't mind travelling alone
You are the sweetest little thing I ever found
Won't nothing bring you down like your hometown
