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
