Verse 1:
D
You were too bad for a little square town
Cadd9 E7
With your hip-hop hat and your pants on the ground
D
Heard you cussed out momma, pushed daddy around
Cadd9 E7 Riff 1
Before you tore off in his car
D
Here you are runnin these dirty old streets
Cadd9 E7
Tattoo on your neck, fake gold on your teeth
D
Got the 'hood here snow but you can't fool me
Cadd9 E7 Riff 1
We both know who you are
Chorus:
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/e/eric_church/homeboy_crd_ver_4.html ]
D
Homeboy, you're gonna wish one day,
Cadd9 E7
You were sittin on the gate of a truck by the lake
D Cadd9 E7
With your high school flame on one side, ice cold beer on the other
D Cadd9
Ain't no shame in a blue collar forty, little house, little kids, little
E7
small town story
D Cadd9 E7
If you don't ever do anything else for me, just do this for me brother
Come on home, boy.
Repeat Intro
Verse 2:
D
I was haulin' this hay, on Uncle Joe's farm
Cadd9 E7
Thought of us barefoot kids in the yard,
D
Man, it seems we were just catchin' snakes in the barn
Cadd9 E7 Riff 1
Now you're caught up in this mess
D
I could use a little help unloadin these bales
Cadd9 E7
I could keep you pretty busy with a hammer and a nail
D
Ain't a glamorous life but it'll keep you outta jail
Cadd9 E7 Riff 1
Not worry us all to death.

You can't hold back, the hands of time

Before they're called, home boy.
