[Verse 1]
[C]Oh,[F][C][F][C]
you can see it when you close your eyes
A Norman Rockwell painting
come to life
With all the [G]colors [C]of
a stained- glass window
All the characters and old dogs and
kin folk
[F][C]

[Verse 2]
[F][C][G]
[C]And it sme[F]lls lik[C]e barbecue
and old garden roses
[F]Yells l[C]ike cheerleaders and
football coaches
[F]And it walks [C]like a mayor and
[F]it dances [C]like a prom
[F]And it sleeps [C]like a porch and it
[F]cooks [C]like your [G]mama[C]

[Verse 3]
[G]Homet[C]own, [G]hometown[C]
May [G]be the sweetest word
With [C]the sweetest [F]sound
[G]Homet[C] own
[F][C]

[Verse 4]
[F][C][G]
[C]And it's growing like tomatoes
on the [Em]vine[C]
[F]Fading[C] like a Dr. Pepper sign
Still preaching like a Pentecostal and
fishing like [G]a back[C]slider
[F]And pulling [C]little sisters in bright [F]red ra
[C]dio [G]fly[C] er[F] s[C][F][C][G]
[C]An d it

[Verse 5]
[F]marches [C]in the veteran's
day [F]parade[C]
And it [F]proudly lets old glory wave

[Verse 6]
It's [C]rodeos and [G]county fair[C]s
All [F]Farris [C]wheels and canned up pears
It'll [F]let [C]you go just to welcome you back

[Verse 7]
No, it don't get no better than that
[G]Homet[C]own, [G]hometown[C]
May [G]be the sweetest word
With [C]the sweetest [F]sound

[Verse 8]
[F]
Ho[G]metown, [C]hom[G]etown[C]
May [G]be the sweetest word
With [C]the sweetest sound
[F]

[Verse 9]
Our [C]hometown, [F]yeah, [C]your hometown
Hey, [F]our [C]hometown,
[F]you[C]r h[F]ometo[C]wn
[F]Oh,[C] you[G] ca[C]n see it
when you close your [G]eyes
