Hometown

Dm   Bb
    Short cut to a quick buck is 
working all the time

Renting out your mind

And saving every dime
                              G
Because when ten of those combine
             Bb
They cross a sacred line
            G
And go from pocket change
     Bb        C
To a gold mine

Dm                 Bb
She said she'd be down to hangout

With her parents out of town she was
 hoping i'm around
                          G
For a party at her vacant place
  Bb                    G
I said i'd come; showed up and felt 
out of place
    Bb
So i headed home

                G                 
That's when she text my phone and 
Bb
ask me where
  G              Bb
I was and when i said i was gone
    G
She broke my spine
    Bb
And in that pain
                G                  
I realized that every dime i'd ever
                    Bb
 saved wasn't worth anything

           Dm                      
What's the drive in being alive 
      Am
when you don't know who you are?
           C                       
What's the fun in getting drunk if 
          G
you can't take it too far
        Dm                         
Yeah my friends are saying i've 
             Am
been wasting all my weekends 
contemplating
        G
If it's me or the booze that really 
gets wasted
G
I don't even taste it

G
When i'm throwing back shots as if 
its a race then
G
Quickly chase them

   Dm       Am        G
Without a mouth i'm so down
F      Dm        Am             G
My hometown only makes me feel alone
              F
But just when i

Dm                     Bb
Hometown girls are my greatest fear
        Dm                         
So in a couple days i'll be off to 
C
college for another year
Bb
  thinkin'
    C
I'm gettin' away by hitting the road
Dm                       C
  somehow she make it to all of my 
shows now where can i go

D           Bb
Girl it's a simple matter
Dm               C            Bb
Put your painted finger on my tongue
         C
So i can taste the lacquer
Dm              C                 
And relive each door that you have 
 G
touched

G
And then she split my lips
Bb
  and for three whole days
  G
I tried to speak but everyone agreed
              Bb
They couldn't hear a word i'd say

           Dm                      
What's the drive in being alive 
      Am
when you don't know who you are?
           C                       
What's the fun in getting drunk if 
          G
you can't take it too far
G
I'm singing oh i don't know
G
Take me anywhere but home

   Dm     Am          G
Without a mouth i'm so down
     F       Dm      Am          
But my hometown only makes me 
    G
feel alone
              F         Dm        
Then just when i i i i think i'm 
                          Am  
in the clear she hook her hair 
                         G
behind her ears and says i'm

Going down
F        Dm         Am          
She said baby it's okay to feel 
    Bb                C
the way you do if you keep it to 
yourself

Bb                      G
Life is a bitch with no mouth and no
 lips
       Dm                       C
But it sure ain't no fun with no 
teeth and no tongue
Bb                      G
Life is a bitch with no mouth and no
 lips
       Dm                       C
But it sure ain't no fun with no 
teeth and no tongue
Bb                      G
Life is a bitch with no mouth and no
 lips
Bb                      G
Life is a bitch with no mouth and no
 lips
Bb                      G        
Life is a bitch with no mouth and
    Am
 no lips
