Capo 1st fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Yesterday I got a call

Someone I didn't know at all had passed away

Mama said, "Yeah you know him

You went to school with both his kids

They lived out on Prescott lane"

She said, "You should've seen the line

Mrs. Johnson said to tell you 'Hi'"

Chorus

]

 Thank God for hometowns

 And all the love that makes you go round

 Thank God for the county lines that welcome you back in

 When you were dying to get out

 Thank God for Church pews

 And all the faces that won't forget you

 Cause when you're lost out in this crazy world

 You got somewhere to go and get found

 Thank God for hometowns

2x

Yeah

Last June my cousin tied the knot,

Didn't know if I'd go or not

But I'm sure glad I did

It was a pretty good haul but worth the drive

I could feel myself come back to life

The closer that I'd get

First red light I rolled the windows down

Breathed it in and took a look around

Chorus

]

 Thank God for hometowns

 First kisses and touchdowns

 Thank God for the county lines that welcome you back in

 When you were dying to get out

 Thank God for Church pews

 And all the faces that won't forget you

 Cause when you're lost out in this crazy world

 You got somewhere to go and get found

 Thank God for hometowns

Bridge

I always find another piece of me

Walking down these old familiar streets

Chorus

]

 Thank God for hometowns

 And all the love that makes you go round

 Thank God for the county lines that welcome you back in

 When you were dying to get out

 Thank God for Church pews

 And all the faces that won't forget you

 Cause when you're lost out in this crazy world

 You got somewhere to go and get found

 Thank God for hometowns

 Yeah

 Thank God for hometowns
