Hometown Gypsy by Red Hot Chili Peppers
Hometown Gypsy
Tuning: Standard
Intro: Dm
Dm
Drivin' up the coast to find a version of the truth
Left the backdoor swinging like a dirty little sleuth
C B Am
The truth is I have never felt half this alive
C Dm
Now it's time to dance upon the grave called "45"
Dm
Jacked upon some Kerouac and surely bullet proof
The girl who taught me what to do was missing her front tooth
C B Am
Gentle as a storm inside your mental health
C Dm
I wanna find the answer but I just can't find myself
Dm C
I say so long to the way I played
G
The way I played inside of yesterday
Dm C
Hey let's run around
G Dm
The great escape from out of my hometown
Dm
Later I would look for love inside a woman's dorm
A couch to keep me humble and her breath to keep me warm
C B Am
Ophelia was the girl that I was feeling for
C Dm
Come to realize it was me who was the whore
Dm
A captain lost himself inside a 40 year old skull
The drink of choice was knowledge and we always wanted more
C B Am
Drunken sailors seeking their Geronimo
C Dm
Instead they found the things that they really didn't wanna know
Dm C
I say so long to the way I played
G
The way I played inside of yesterday
Dm C
Hey let's run around
G
The great escape from out of my hometown
Dm C
Country roads would never let me stay
G Gm
The way I played inside of yesterday
Bridge: Gm, A, Dm
Dm
A devil's growl and a cat's meow were blended into one
Termites called suburbanites were eating all the fun
C B Am
A juggernaut of comedy and blasphemy
C Dm
I wanna stop the madness but I think it has to be
Dm C
I say so long to the way I played
G
The way I played inside of yesterday
Dm C
Hey let's run around
G
The great escape from out of my hometown
Dm C
Country roads would never let me stay
G
The way I played inside of yesterday
Dm C
Hey let's run around
G Dm
The great escape from out of my hometown

Drivin' up the coast
To find a version of the truth
Left the backdoor swinging
Like a dirty little slueth
The truth is I have never left
Felt half this alive
Now it's time to dance
Upon the grave called 45
Jacked up on some Kerouac
And surely bulletproof
The Girl who taught me what to do
Was missing her front tooth
Gentle as a storm
Inside your mental health
I want to find the answer
But I just can't find myself
I say so long
To the way I played
The way I played
Inside of yesterday
Hey let's run around
The great escape
From out of my hometown
Later I would look for love
Inside a woman's dorm
A couch to keep me humble
And her breath to keep me warm
Ophelia was the girl
That I was feeling for
Come to realize
It was me who was the whore
A captain lost himself
Inside a 40 year old skull
The drink of choice was knowledge
And we always wanted more
Drunken sailors
Seeking their Geronimo
Instead they found the things
That they really didn't want to know
Country roads
Would never let me stay
The way I played
Inside of yesterday
A devil's growl and cat's meow
Were blended into one
Termites called suburbanites
Were eating all the fun
A juggernaut of comedy
And blasphemy
I wanna stop the madness
But I think it has to be
Hey let's run around
The great escape
From out of my hometown
