Drop D tuning

Intro:
D Cadd9 G


Verse:
 D
You were too bad for a little square town
     Cadd9        G
With your hip-hop hat and your pants on the ground
     D
Heard you cussed out mama, pushed daddy around
      Cadd9      G
before you tore off in his car
D

Here you are runnin' these dirty old streets
  Cadd9         G
Tattoo on your neck, fake gold on your teeth
    D
Got the hood here snowed, but you can’t fool me
  Cadd9       G
We both know who you are


Chorus:
D
Homeboy, you’re gonna wish one day
       Cadd9         G
That you were sittin' on a gate of a truck by the lake
     D                    Cadd9    G
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 kid, little
G
small town story
    D                    Cadd9     G
If you don’t ever do anything else for me, just do this for me brother
    D
Come on home, boy.


Verse:
   D
I was haulin' this hay to Uncle Joes farm
Cadd9         G
Thought of us barefoot kids in the yard
    D
Man, it seems we were just catchin' snakes in the barn
     Cadd9       G
Now you’re caught up in this mess
    D
I could use a little help unloadin' these bales
    Cadd9            G
I could keep you pretty busy with a hammer and nails
    D
Ain’t a glamorous life but it will keep you outta jail
  Cadd9      G
Not worry us all to death


Chorus:
D
Homeboy, you’re gonna wish one day
       Cadd9         G
That you were sittin' on a gate of a truck by the lake
     D                    Cadd9    G
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 kid, little
G
small town story
    D                    Cadd9     G
If you don’t ever do anything else for me, just do this for me brother
D            Cadd9  G
come on home, boy,
D            Cadd9  G  D
Come on home, boy


Outro:
  D
You cant hold back the hands of time
Cadd9          G
Mamas goin' grey, and so is daddys mind
D                     Cadd9  G
I wish you’d come on back and make it all right
               D
Before they’re called home, boy
D
Homeboy
D       Cadd9 G
Come on home, boy
D  Cadd9 G
Homeboy
     D
Come on home, boy
