Eric Church - Homeboy
D
You were too bad for a little square town
C G
with your hip-hop hat and your pants on the ground
D
Heard you cussed out mamma, pushed daddy around
C G
You tore off in his car
D
Here you are runnin' these dirty old streets
C G
Tattoo on your neck, fake gold on your teeth
D C G
Got the hood here snow, but you cant fool me, we both know who you are

Chorus:
D C
Homeboy your gonna wish one day you were sittin' on the gate of a
G
truck by the lake
D
with your high school flame on one side,
C G
ice cold beer on the other
D
Ain't no shame in a blue collar forty,
C G
little house little kids little small town story
D C G
If you don't ever do anything else for me just do this for me brother,
D
come on homeboy
C G
D
I's haulin' this hay, Uncle Joe's farm
C G
Thought of us bare foot kids in the yard
D C
Man it seems we were just catchin' snakes in the barn
G
now you're caught up in this mess
D
I can use a little help unloadin' these bails
C G
I can keep ya pretty busy with a hammer and a nail
D C
Ain't a glamorous life, but it'll keep you outta jail
G
and not worry us all to death
[Repeat Chorus]
D
You can't hold back the hands of time
C G
Mamas goin' grey and so is Daddy's mind
D C G*(strum once)
I wish you'd come on back and make it alright
(let G ring) D C G
before they're called...homeboy
D C G
Homeboy
D C G
Come on homeboy
D C G
Homeboy
...D* (strum once)
Come on homeboy
