[Verse 1] Bear Rinehart, Jon Foreman, & Judah Akers
 C                  G
Stoplights and the headlights
       Am                     F
Are a festive red, green, and gold
   Am             D
Procrastinating shoppers
     G                  F
Caffeinated against the cold
             C               G
But there's nothing you can buy me
           Am           F
It's your hand I wanna hold


[Pre-Chorus] Bear Rinehart
         C                       F
There's miles between brothers, years between friends
           Am               F
And we'll all be together again


[Chorus] Bear Rinehart
                   C          F
'Cause you're not alone when
                      C       F
The porch lights are shining
               Am                                G
It's your invitation to the love that's been waiting
                               G
Singin', "Child why don't you come on in"
                   C    Am    F    G
It's a hometown Christmas


[Verse 2] Bear Rinehart, Jon Foreman, & Judah Akers
      C                G
The lights are on the houses
         Am                 F
And the trees are brought inside
     Am                  D
The parking spot at the local mall
        G                F
Is the hardest thing to find
               C                    G
Yeah, but I'm pretty sure that the Christmas star
           Am                   F
Was in my daughter's eyes last night


[Pre-Chorus] Jon Foreman
                     C                 F
Yeah 'cause there's miles between us, years between friends
           Am               F
But we'll all be together again


[Chorus] Jon Foreman
                   C          F
'Cause you're not alone when
                        C       F
Those porch lights are shining
               Am                               G
It's your invitation to the love that's been waiting
                  F
One thing on my wishlist
                    C
It's a hometown Christmas, yeah

[Verse 3] Bear Rinehart, Jon Foreman, & Judah Akers
  C                 F
Grandma's singing Christmas songs
      Am                    F
That none of us have ever heard
    Am              D
Us cousins we'd be playing up
      G          F
Till dinner was served
         C                  G
But the feeling that comes back to me
    Am      G        F
Is hard to put into words


[Pre-Chorus] Judah Akers
                C                     F
'Cause there's miles between lovers, years between friends
           Am               F
But we'll all be together again


[Chorus] Judah Akers
                   C                 F
'Cause you're not alone when ('lone when)
                      C          F
The porch lights are shining (shining)
               Am                             G
It's your invitation to a love that's been waiting

So child come on in

           C     F
We're not alone when (woo!)

               Am                             G
It's your invitation to a love that's been waiting
                           F
Singin', "Child won't you come on in"
                    C   Am   F   G
It's a hometown Christmas
                    C   Am   F   G
It's a hometown Christmas
