C               F      C
I love those dear hearts and gentle people
                   G7
Who live in my hometown
             C    C7         F
I love those dear hearts and gentle people
    C          G7     C
Who never ever let me down.


[Verse 2]
                             F           C
They read the good book from Friday 'til Monday
                       G7
That's how the weekend goes
           C     C7         F
I've got a dream house I'll build there one day
     C                G7       C
With picket fence and ramblin' rose.


[Chorus]
          F            C
I feel so welcome each time that I return
                      D7                    G7
'Til my happy heart's laughin' like a clown 
             C               F
I love those dear hearts and gentle people
    C                G7      C
Who live and love in my home town.


[Verse 2]
                             F           C
They read the good book from Friday 'til Monday
                       G7
That's how the weekend goes
           C     C7         F
I've got a dream house I'll build there one day
     C                G7       C
With picket fence and ramblin' rose.


[Chorus]
          F            C
I feel so welcome each time that I return
                      D7                    G7
'Til my happy heart's laughin' like a clown 
             C                     F
I love those dear, dear hearts and gentle people
    C          G7      C
Who never ever let you down.
