Half Of My Hometown Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][G][C][C]

[Verse 1]
[G]Half of my high school got too drunk
Half of my high school fell in love
With the [C]girl next door
In their daddy's Ford
[G]Half of my main street's mini skirts
Half of my main street's dressed for church
It could [C]use some rain
And a fresh coat of paint

[Chorus 1]
Half of my home[G]town's still hangin' around
Still talkin' a[D]bout that one touchdown
They're still [Em]wearin' red and black
Go Bob[C]cats, while the other half
Of my home[G]town, they all got out
Some went [D]north, some went south
Still [Em]lookin' for a feelin'
[D]half of us ain't fou[C]nd
So stay or [Am]leave
Part of [Bm]me will al[C]ways be
Half of my home[G]town[G]

[Verse 2]
[G]Half of our prom queens cut their hair
Half of them think that it ain't fair
The [C]quarterback moved away
and never came back
[G]Half of my family is happy I left
The other half worries I'll just forget
Where [C]I came from
The same place where they came from

[Chorus 2]
Half of my home[G]town's still hangin' around
Still talkin' a[D]bout that one touchdown
They're still [Em]wearin' red and black
Go Bob[C]cats, while the other half
Of my home[G]town, they all got out
Some went [D]north, some went south
Still [Em]lookin' for a feelin'
[D]half of us ain't fou[C]nd
So stay or [Am]leave
Part of [Bm]me will al[C]ways be
Half of my home[G]town[D]
Half of my home[Em]town[C]

[Bridge 1]
[Em]Back roads [D]raise us
[C]Highways take [Bm]us
[Am]Memories [Bm]make us wanna go [C]back

[Chorus 3]
To our home[G]town, settle down
Talk about that one touchdown
Raise some [Em]kids in red and black
Go Bob[C]cats, while the other half
Of my home[G]town was in the crowd
They knew the [D]words, they sang them loud
And [Em]all I wanna do
is make [C]them proud
'Cause half of [Am]me will always be[Bm]
[C]Knoxville, Tennessee

[Outro 1]
My home[G]town
My home[C]town
