My Hometown Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]2, [Am]3, th[C]is song goes
out to my good [F]friends
Es[C]pecially the ones I had before [G]the
Grammy Nominations [F]in 2003
And to [C]all the girls from
back in high [F]school
Who [C]actually spoke to me even [G]though
I was a fat kid and [F]a marching band geek

[Verse 2]
I [C]hope this song finds you [F]well
And I [C]hope that your doin' fuckin' [F]swell
I [G]hope that you're back up if
you've [F]ever been [Am]down
And I [F]hope you got [G]the fuck
out of our [C]hometown!

[Verse 3]
[C]
Here comes a shout-out to
to the pro[F]fessor
Who said, [C]"Son,
pick a path and stay the same,
[G]Cause charisma is the
key to op[F]portunity."
And to [C]all the clubs that let us [F]play
To our [C]family and friends and the music stores
for [G]giving us gear when we [F]couldn't pay.

[Verse 4]
I [C]hope this song finds [F]you well
And I [C]hope that your doin' fuckin' [F]swell
I [G]hope that you're back up if
you've [F]ever been [Am]down
And I [F]hope you [C]got [G]the
fuck out of our [C]town!

[Verse 5]
You know I [F]can't count how many [G]times I've
heard people [C]say[Dm]
[Em](heard people [Dm]say)[Em]
Be [F]proud of where you're [G]from,
you're gonna [C]put us on the [Am]map
But [F]where the hell [G]were you
back in the [C]day?
[Dm](back[Em] in t[Dm]he d[C]ay)
[F]No one came to see[G] us so we got[C] the
[Am]hell out [G]of [F]there, so [G]there.

[Verse 6]
You have a [C]d-d-d-d-d-d dis dis dis dis dis
dis song goes out to my big [F]brother
For [C]putting up with me
following you around
And for [G]making me smile when
things at [F]home weren't great
And for [C]not getting pissed when
I humped your [F]girlfriend
For [C]letting me take your car to the prom
For [F]beating up the guys that
hung my bike in a tree
For [C]hand-me-down albums albums
albums and guitar with no strings
And for [F]never beating the shit outta me!

[Verse 7]
I [C]hope this song [Em]finds you [F]well
And I [C]hope that you're
[Em]doin' [G]fuck[C]in' [F]swell
I [G]hope that you're back up cause
I [F]know you've been [Am]down
I just [F]wish you'd get [G]the
fuck out of our ho[C]metown!
I [F]hope you get the [G]fuck out of
our ho[C]metown![Am]
I'm so [F]glad I got the [G]fuck out
of our [C]homet[Am]own!

[Verse 8]
You [Am]know what I'm talking about,
