Hometown Blues by Steve Earle G I wish I'd never come back home It don't feel right since I've been D grown G I can't find any of my C old friends hangin' round Won't G nothing bring you D down like your home G town I spent some time in New Orleans I had to live on rice and beans I hitched through Texas when the sun was beating down Won't nothing bring you down like your hometownSo don't think about me when I'm gone I don't mind travelling alone You are the sweetest little thing I ever found Won't nothing bring you down like your hometown One verse instrumental Repeat Chorus Repeat Last Verse Repeat Last LineC Home is where the heart is Ain't that G what they always say C My heart lies in broken pieces D Scattered along the way
