My Hometown 2 Teclado

	  G                          C   
Well I had a buddy back in 81  
       G  
And we made ourselves a pact 
G                      C             
We were headin for the new pipeline  
       D 
And we were never coming back 
G                          C               
We worked 80 hours making time and a half  
       G 
But La Grange was too damn hot 
G                                 C                 
So we drove back home home at the end of that week  
       D               G 
And we spent it all on pot 
G                               C 
So I'll see you in Houston if I ever get out that way  
                G            D 
I'll see you in Dallas but I won't have long to stay  
                 G                 C 
If your ever out west son and your feeling like  slowin' down  
             G            D       G       C   G   D   G 
I'll see you around round my hometown 
G                         C 
Well I played ball every single fall 
        G 
I could run just like the wind 
G                           C 
I went to college like they asked me too 
         D                       
But they didn't ask my friends 
G                       C 
Don't think I've seen a single classroom  
      G 
But I drank a lot of beer 
G                        C             
My buddies still love to listen to me  
       D               G 
When I talk about that year 
G                               C 
So I'll see you in Houston if I ever get out that way  
                G            D 
I'll see you in Dallas but I won't have long to stay  
                 G                 C 
If your ever out west son and your feeling like  slowin' down  
             G            D       G       C   G   D   G 
I'll see you around round my hometown 
 
SOLO 
 
G                  C               G 
Now I got myself a little band and we're pretty good I guess 
G                          C           
But I never learned how to wear my hair  
      D 
And I never learned how to dress 
G                      C 
So I'm leavin' for the last time honey  
G 
I'm never more to roam 
G                            C 
Gonna pack my bags a little heavy this time  
      D                G 
Gonna head my ass back home 
                   G              C 
So I'll see you in Nashville if I ever get out that way 
                G            D 
I'll see you in Austin but I won't have long to stay 
                   G                   C 
If you're ever out west son and you're feelin' like slowin' down 
             G            D        G  C 
I'll see you around round my hometown 
             G            D       G 
I'll see you around round my hometown
