Hometown

A D A E A A On the verge of a breakdown D Back in her hometown A Never thought she’d settle down E In a place like this A Cold coffee on the back porch D Wooden chair rocking back and forth A Now she wonders how it all went down E A Back in her hometown A Most people never left D Found a job and filled in the rest A Never got around to leaving the nest E Holding on to not let go A But that path just wasn’t for her D She got out faster than the fireworks A Never took time to slow it down E A Now she’s back in her hometown D A Looking out at the cedars and the oaks D A E The mourning dove sings beneath the sky of blue A All the thoughts that led her out D On that road, without a doubt A Somewhere they fizzled out E A Now she’s back in her hometown A D A E A A What makes a life complete? D Roads traveled and the people you meet? A Or is just the silence E Of the times in between? F#m Her mind is racing as she sits alone D In the place that she used to call home A Memories are all around E A Bm Back in her hometown A D A Looking out at the light above the hills D A E Her mama sings beneath the sky of blue A All the thoughts that led her out D On that road, without a doubt A Somewhere they fizzled out E A Back in her hometown A D A Somewhere they fizzled out E A Back in her hometown
