Flatlanders - Down In My Hometown Chords

[Intro]
C   G
 
 
[Chorus]
               C
Down in my hometown
           G
There is a fortune
                  D
They used call it gold
                      G
But now it's love I'm told
               C
With a worried mind
         G
I put my time in
                     D
But hunger comes and goes
                         G
Even while the wild wind blows
 
 
[Verse 1]
      C                             G
Now I could sing you a song of inspiration
        D                           G
Or of a new world where everyone is free
            C                                 G
But now you know there ain't no new way to salvation
                    D                              G
The time is gettin' short, my friends, for you and me
 
 
[Chorus]
               C
Down in my hometown
           G
There is a fortune
                  D
They used call it gold
                      G
But now it's love I'm told
 
 
[Instrumental]
C  G  D  G
C  G  D  G
 
 
               C
With a worried mind
         G
I put my time in
                     D
But hunger comes and goes
                         G
Even while the wild wind blows
 
 
[Verse 2]
           C                                G
Now when I left there, my eyes cast down in sorrow
               D                         G
So very soon I found the darkness on the ground
          C                                 G
And now I see the clouds a' gatherin' for tomorrow
                   D                      G
But I must journey on the one road I have found
 
 
[Chorus]
               C
Down in my hometown
           G
There is a fortune
                  D
They used call it gold
                      G
But now it's love I'm told
               C
With a worried mind
         G
I put my time in
                     D
But hunger comes and goes
                         G
Even while the wild wind blows
 
 
[Outro]
