Yesterday I got a call
G Am F G
Someone I didn't know at all had passed away
F C
Mama said, "Yeah you know him
G Am
You went to school with both his kids
F
They lived out on Prescott lane"
Dm C
She said, "You should've seen the line
F G
Mrs. Johnson said to tell you 'Hi'"
[Chorus:]
F C G
Thank God for hometowns
F C G
And all the love that makes you go round
F C G
Thank God for the county lines that welcome you back in
C G F F
When you were dying to get out
G F C G
Thank God for Church pews
F C G
And all the faces that won't forget you
F C
Cause when you're lost out in this crazy world
G C G Dm
You got somewhere to go and get found
G F
Thank God for hometowns
F C G 2x
Yeah
F C
Last June my cousin tied the knot,
G Am
Didn't know if I'd go or not
F G
But I'm sure glad I did
F C
It was a pretty good haul but worth the drive
G Am
I could feel myself come back to life
F
The closer that I'd get
Dm C
First red light I rolled the windows down
F G
Breathed it in and took a look around
[Chorus:]
F C G
Thank God for hometowns
F C G
First kisses and touchdowns
F C G
Thank God for the county lines that welcome you back in
C G F F
When you were dying to get out
G F C G
Thank God for Church pews
F C G
And all the faces that won't forget you
F C
Cause when you're lost out in this crazy world
G C G Dm
You got somewhere to go and get found
G F
Thank God for hometowns
[Bridge:]
Dm F G
I always find another piece of me
Dm F
Walking down these old familiar streets
[Chorus:]
G F C G
Thank God for hometowns
F C G
And all the love that makes you go round
F C G
Thank God for the county lines that welcome you back in
C G F F
When you were dying to get out
G F C G
Thank God for Church pews
F C G
And all the faces that won't forget you
F C
Cause when you're lost out in this crazy world
G C G Dm
You got somewhere to go and get found

Thank God for hometowns

Thank God for hometowns
End on F
