Intro 
 
D A/C# Bm G 2X 
 
Verse 
D                  D/F# 
They're not really expecting me 
G                     A                       Bm   
But I know where they hide the key, under the welcome mat 
                  A  
There's no better place than that 
D                   D/F#  
Don't know how long I've been gone 
G                  A                     Bm  
All I know is it's been too long and I'm off track 
               A  
That's why I'm coming back 

               D                A/C# 
When I see the lights of my hometown 
                Bm                    G  
I feel like the world stops spinning 'round  
     D                A/C# 
Everything makes sense  
               G 
Maybe it's the innocence  
                   D                  A/C# 
I know it's just a few miles down the road  
                     Bm            G 
I'm getting there as fast as I can go  
      Em          D/F#          
I can always find peace of mind  
G 
In the lights of my hometown
  
 
D A/C# Bm G 
 
Verse 
D             D/F# 
The static is almost gone 
G                  A  
From the station I grew up on  
            Bm 
I'm getting closer now 
             A  
So I turn it up real loud  
D                  D/F# 
Funny how a little thing like that  
G                    A 
Can make it all come rushing back 
              Bm  
They say it's not the same 
                  A  
But to me it will never change 
 
               D                A/C# 
When I see the lights of my hometown 
                Bm                    G  
I feel like the world stops spinning 'round 
     D                A/C#  
Everything makes sense  
               G 
Maybe it's the innocence  
                   D                  A/C# 
I know it's just a few miles down the road 
                     Bm            G  
I'm getting there as fast as I can go 
      Em          D/F#  
I can always find peace of mind  
G 
In the lights of my hometown
  
 
Bridge 
Bm                    A 
Though I said goodbye 
 
The best of me still lies 
  G 
Inside that city limit sign

                     Bm            G  
I'm getting there as fast as I can go 
       Em         D/F#  
I can always find peace of mind 
G  
In the lights of my hometown
