More Than My Hometown

   G
Girl, our mamas are best friends and
 so are we
   Am
The whole town's rooting for us like
 the home team
   Em
Most likely to settle down
              C
Plant a few roots real deep, and let
 'em grow

   G
But we can't stop this real world 
from spinnin' us
   Am
Your bright lights called, I don't 
blame you for pickin' up
   Em                              
Your big dream bags are all packed 
                    C
up and ready to go

I just need you to know

            G
I love you more than a California 
sunset
            Am
More than a beer when you ain't 
twenty-one yet
            Em
More than a Sunday morning Lord
                               C
Turnin' some poor lost souls 'round,
 Hallelujah bound, Yeah

            G
I love you more than the feeling 
when the bass hits a hook
          Am
When the guy gets the girl at the 
end of the book
           Em                    
But, baby, this might be the last 
                             C
time I get to lay you down

'Cause I can't love you more than my
 hometown

 G
I ain't the runaway kind, I can't 
change that
   Am
My heart's stuck in these streets 
like the train tracks
  Em
City sky ain't the same black
              C
Ain't that a map dot shame, man, to 
think that

            G
I love you more than a California 
sunset
             Am
More than a beer when you ain't 
twenty-one yet
              Em
More than a Sunday morning Lord
                               C
Turnin' some poor lost souls round, 
Hallelujah bound, Yeah

            G
I love you more than the feeling 
when the bass hits a hook
          Am
When the guy gets the girl at the 
end of the book
            Em                   
But, baby, this might be the last 
                             C
time I get to lay you down

'Cause I can't love you more than my
 hometown

                 G
Yeah, you got a wild in your eyes 
that I just wasn't born with
       Am
I'm a same gas station cup of coffee
 in the mornin'
            Em
I need the house on the hill, girl, 
not in 'em
                     C
So hang onto these words 'til them 
avenues help you forget 'em

                    G
'Cause I love you more than a 
California sunset
             Am
I love you more in a twenty-dollar 
sundress
            Em
Hate that loaded down car you got 
your keys in
             C
Girl, but I hate even more that 
you're leavin'

                   G
'Cause I love you more than the 
feeling when the bass hits a hook
          Am
When the guy gets the girl at the 
end of the book
           Em                      
But that ain't you and me so I 
                      C
guess I'll see you around

'Cause I can't love you more than my
 hometown

G                              Am
Love you more than my hometown
                               Em
Love you more than my hometown

Love you more, baby, love you more
