Rodney Crowell – Hungry For Home (Guitar)

G                  D
 I love fat back on mustard greens

C
 Gobbled up an onion like a peach I've seen

G
 Seen a pot of hot collards

                                D
 Make a monkey out of full grown men

G                         D
 John cakes bigger than a  catcher's mitt

C
 Butter on a biscuit and a plate of hot grits

G
 Soak them in molasses and

                          D
 Let them run on down your chin

C D
 I'm hungry for home,

G
 I've been gone to long

D
 Feeling beat up and bent

G
 I guess I'm pretty well spent

Em
 I try to make my mark

G
 Everywhere I roam

D
 But I'm losing my spark

G
 I'm hungry for home

G                      D
 A Frito pie and a Nehi grape

C
 Sure love leave you in a tip-top shape

G
 Ain't nothing like sitting down eating

                    D
 Keeps your hopes up high

G                             D
 A pinto bean and a black-eyed pea

C
 Boiled red cabbage and believe you me

G
 A deviled egg and a chicken leg

                                 D
 Says you're never gonna ever say die

C D
 I'm hungry for home,

G
 I've been gone to long

D
 Feeling beat up and bent

G
 I guess I'm pretty well spent

Em
 I try to make my mark

G
 Everywhere I roam

D
 But I'm losing my spark

G
 I'm hungry for home

G                          D
 Popcorn Shrimp, that ought to do

C
 Next best thing to a catfish stew

G
 You catch them in the river and

                        D
 Cook them in the frying pan

G                      D
 A Lemon Merigue on the windowsill

C
 Sweet iced tea for to drink your fill

G
 Papa come and get it

                           D
 Better live it up while we can

C D
 I'm hungry for home,

G
 I've been gone to long

D
 Feeling beat up and bent

G
 I guess I'm pretty well spent

Em
 I try to make my mark

G
 Everywhere I roam

D
 But I'm losing my spark

G
 I'm hungry for home

G              D
 I'm hungry for home

               G
 I'm hungry for home

D              G     D
 I'm hungry for home
