               G
I'm sure you'd love where I'm from
                  C
Green like you've never seen before
       Em               D
Take a ride through the hills
             C
We're not in Cali anymore
       G
Drive around and I point out
        C
All the places from my stories
          Em                     D
That's my school and there's the train
        C
Here it is in all it's glory

D          Em              G    D      C
It's crazy being somewhere time stands still
D                 Em       G       D        C
If you want me to take you home of course I will


[Chorus]
    G            D
And I bet my family would love you
Em                 C
They take a little warming up to
G                        D              Em                     C
They'll press you on the details of the first night that we met
    G                     D
And my mom would bake you something sweet
     Em                 C
That good southern hospitality
    G                     D            Em            C
And you'd look around and wonder why I ever even left
    D                Em
And wouldn't that be nice
         D               Em
But we'd never get inside
   D          Em        D       C
As if I had a choice to fall in love
    Am                  D           G
But home isn't home for people like us


[Verse]
    G
You understand we can't hold hands
               C
Unless we like getting dirty looks
          Em               D
And as we walk down memory lane
               C
You'd see that most of them ain't good
           G
That's the church where I first learned
       C
That I wasn't the good kind of different
       Em            D
People age but never change
          C
They just hide behind white fences

D          Em              G    D      C
It's crazy being somewhere time stands still
D               Em                  G        D     C
I thought you'd meet by now but you probably never will


[Chorus]
    G            D
And I bet my family would love you
Em                 C
They take a little warming up to
G                        D              Em                     C
They'll press you on the details of the first night that we met
    G                     D
And my mom would bake you something sweet
     Em                 C
That good southern hospitality
    G                     D            Em            C
And you'd look around and wonder why I ever even left
    D                Em
And wouldn't that be nice
         D               Em
But we'd never get inside
   D          Em        D       C
As if I had a choice to fall in love
    Am                  D           G
But home isn't home for people like us

        F        C
So much irony in that
                G              D
They'd stop you at the welcome mat
       F                   C
And be real nice when they tell me
            D
I should've never come back
    F               C
And everything we expect
    Bm                   Dm
Is exactly what we don't get
        F            C       G
Well, I guess that's what we get


[Chorus]
    G            D
And I bet my family would love you
Em           C
If they ever got to know you
G                    D              Em                     C
We'd laugh about the details of the first night that we met
    G                     D
And my mom would bake you something sweet
    Em                   C
And sneak you the family recipe
    G                     D            Em            C
And you'd look around and wonder why I ever even left
D                Em
Wouldn't that be nice
          D          Em
But we'll never even try
   D           Em        D       C
As if we had a choice to fall in love
    Am                  D           Em
But home isn't home for people like us

    Am                  D
No, home isn't home for people
