My Hometown Charlie Robison
Charlie Robinson: My Hometown
Mandolin/Drum intro
[G]Well I had a buddy back in 81 [C]
And we made ou[G]rselves a pact
[G]We were headin for the new pipeline [C]
And we were n[D]ever coming back
We wor[G]ked 80 hours making time and a half[C]
But La Grang[G]e was too damn hot
[G]So we drove back home home at the end of that week [C]
And we [D]spent it all on pot[G]
[G]So I'll see you in Houston if I ever ge[C]t out that way
I'll see you in Dalla[G]s but I won't hav[D]e long to stay
If your ever out west son[G] and your feeling like slow[C]in' down
I'll see you around r[G]ound my hometown[D] [G] [C] [G] [D] [G]
[G]Well I played ball every s[C]ingle fall
I could run j[G]ust like the wind
[G]I went to college like they asked me [C]too
But they [D]didn't ask my friends
[G]Don't think I've seen a single cl[C]assroom
But I [G]drank a lot of beer
[G]My buddies still love to listen to[C] me
When I talk[D] about that year[G]
So I'll see you in Houston[G] if I ever get out that way [C]
I'll see you in Dallas b[G]ut I won't ha[D]ve long to stay
If your ever out west son[G] and your feeling like slo[C]win' down
I'll see you aroun[G]d round my ho[D]metown[G] [C] [G] [D] [G]
SOLO
[G]Now I got myself a little band[C] and we're prett[G]y good I guess
[G]But I never learned how to wear my ha[C]ir
And I [D]never learned how to dress
[G]So I'm leavin' for the last tim[C]e honey
[G]I'm never more to roam
[G]Gonna pack my bags a little heavy this [C]time
Gonna head m[D]y ass back home[G]
So I'll see you in Nashvill[G]e if I ever get ou[C]t that way
I'll see you in Austi[G]n but I won't hav[D]e long to stay
If you're ever out west son [G]and you're feelin' like slowi[C]n' down
I'll see you aroun[G]d round my hometown[D] [G] [C]
I'll see you around[G] round my hom[D]etown[G]
[G] [C] [G] [D] [G] [C] [G] [D] [G] [C] [G]
