My Home Town Lyrics

The Wannadies - My Home Town
Obscure band, obscure song, obscure little town... But anyone who's grown up
in Skelleftea, Sweden, will recognize this as a classic, and a local anthem!
Note that for the chords D/F# and B7/D#, the second note is only the root note,

I've never been a loner,
At least I've never wanted to be one

My home is where my heart is and...
horus
This is my home town...
Repeat the intro chord progression again
Verse one reprise; SS NOTS ONLY, NOT HORS
...This is "my home town song"
...A "how it's like at home song"
...Spending hours all alone
Waiting by the phone
(You can start to pick the guitar chords here)
It's hard to say "come closer"
When you're so far away
Whatever you do, remember one thing:
My home is where my heart is and...
horus
This is my home town...
Repeat the intro chord progression once again, slow it down at the end and finish with an
