Damn I used to love this view, sit here and drink a few
Fm C#
Main street and the high school, lit up on Friday night

Down there it's another touchdown, Man this year’s team is stout
Fm C#
I can hear em going crazy, and up here so am I
[Pre-chorus]
D# C#
Thinkin about you sittin there sayin I hate this, I hate it
D# C# D#
If you couldn’t stand livin here why’d you take it, take it?
[Chorus]
G# D# Fm C# G#
Give me back my hometown
G# D# G#
Cause this is my hometown

All the colors of my youth, the red the green the hope the truth
Fm C#
Are beating me black and blue cause your in every scene.
G#
My friends try to cheer me up, we get together at the Pizza Hut
Fm C#
I didn’t have the heart to tell em that was our place
[Pre-chorus]
D# C#
These sleepy streetlights on every sidewalk, side street
D# C# D#
Shed a light on everything that used to be

You can have my grandma’s locket,
the knife outta my grandpa’s pocket
