[Intro]
G   Am   Em   C
[Strophe]
G 
Girl our mama's are best friends and so are we 
            Am 
The whole town was rooting for us like the home team 
Em                                                   C 
Most likely to settle down, plant a few roots real deep and let ‘em grow  
G 
We can’t stop this real world from spinning us 
Am 
Your bright lights called, I don’t blame you for picking up 
Em                                             C 
Your big dream bags are all packed up and ready to go 
  
But I just need you to know
[Refrain]
                G 
That I love you more than a California sunset 
                Am 
More than a beer when you ain’t 21 yet 
                Em                                             C 
More than a Sunday morning Lord turnin' some poor lost souls 'round, Hallelujah bound  
           G 
Yeah, I love you more than a feeling when a bass hits the hook 
          Am 
When the guy gets the girl at the end of the book 
           Em                                     C 
But baby, this might be the last time I get to lay you down 
                                          G 
Cause I can’t love you more than my hometown
[Strophe]
G 
I ain’t the runaway kind, I can’t change that 
Am 
My heart’s stuck in these streets like the train tracks 
Em 
City sky ain’t the same black 
               C 
Ain't that a map dot shame, man, to think that
[Refrain]
                G 
I love you more than a California sunset 
                Am 
More than a beer when you ain’t 21 yet 
                Em                                             C 
More than a Sunday morning Lord turning some poor lost souls 'round, Hallelujah bound  
                        G 
I love you more than a feeling when a bass hits a hook 
          Am 
When the guy gets the girl at the end of the book 
            Em                                   C 
But baby, this might be the last time I get to lay you down 
                                          G 
Cause I can’t love you more than my hometown
[Strophe]
           G 
Yeah, You got a wild in your eyes that I just wasn’t born with 
          Am 
I’m a same gas station cup of coffee in the mornin' 
          Em                                                    C 
I need a house on the hill, girl, not in ‘em so hang onto these words 
  
till them avenues help you forget ‘em
[Refrain]
                 G 
Cause I love you more than a California sunset 
                Am 
I love you more in a twenty dollar sun dress 
                Em 
Hate that loaded down car you got your keys in, girl 
        C 
But I hate even more that you’re leaving 
                  G 
Cause I love you more than a feeling when a bass hits a hook 
           Am 
When the guy gets the girl at the end of the book 
          Em                                           C 
But that ain’t you and me so I guess I’ll just see you around 
                                        G 
Cause I can’t love you more than my hometown  
                      Am 
Love you more than my hometown 
                      Em 
Love you more than my hometown 
                      C 
Love you more, baby, love you more  
G
