Homeboy Eric Church
Tuning: Db Ab Db Gb Bb Eb
The tuning in this song is probably the biggest pain but bear with me this is my
first tab and it sounds right to me when I play it.

Y[D]ou were too bad for a little square town,
With your [C]hip-hop hat and your [G]pants on the ground,
Heard you [D]cussed out mama, pushed daddy around
before you [C]tore off in his [G]car
[D]Here you are running these dirty old streets
Tat[C]too on your neck, fake [G]gold on your teeth
Got the [D]hood here snowed, but you cant fool me
We [C]both know who you [G]are
[D]Homeboy, youre gonna wish one day,
That you were [C]sittin on a gate of a [G]truck by the lake
With your [D]high school flame on one side, ice cold [C]beer on the [G]other
[D]Aint no shame in a blue collar forty, little [C]house, little kid, little
[G]small town story
If you [D]dont ever do anything else for me, just [C]do this for me [G]brother,
D (or same riff as intro)
Come on home, boy.
I was haulin this hay to Uncle Joes farm,
Thought of us barefoot kids in the yard,
Man, it seems we were just catchin snakes in the barn
Now youre caught up in this mess
I could use a little help unloading these bales
I could keep you pretty busy with a hammer and nails
Aint a glamorous life but it will keep you outta jail,
Not worry us all to death
Homeboy, youre gonna wish one day,
That you were sittin on a gate of a truck by the lake
With your high school flame on one side, ice cold beer on the other
Aint no shame in a blue collar forty, little house, little kid, little small town story
If you dont ever do anything else for me, just do this for me brother,
[D]come on home, boy,[C] [G]
[D]Come on home, boy[C] [G] [D]
You cant hold back the hands of time,
Mamas goin grey, and so is daddys mind
[D]I Wish youd come on back and make it all r[C]ight[G]
Before theyre called home, boy
[D]Homeboy
[D]Come on home, [C]boy[G]
[D]Homeb[C]oy[G]
Come on ho[D]me, boy.
