Standard (EADGBE)

 Do you know who you are?

 Do you ever think about it?

 If you were told it`s a place

 Would you drive until you found it?

 Or would you turn down a street

 That you know would lead to where you were before?

 You call it home, but are you really sure

 That`s your home?

 Do you know what you want?

 Have you ever reconsidered

 What a trip we are on

 And it`s the only ride we`re given?

 If you could fly, would you try?

 Would your feet stay firmly planted on the ground?

 Can you explain why the only place you go

 Is to waste?

 Now you go to work and you work all day

 You smoke and bitch on your coffee break

 You tell some jokes to kill that time

 Til the boss comes back and at the stroke of 5

F#min Chord E*

You hit those bars, you have some drinks

 You drown in all your long lost dreams

 Oh nooooooooo,

 you`re closer to nowhere

closer to nowhere

 Do you know who you love?

 Can you say those words with feeling?

 Or when you look in those eyes

 Is there someone else you`re seeing?

 Do you dream of a day

 You could take the love without running away?

 What is it now? Do you need a little space?

 Or are you wanting out?

 Now you go to work and you work all day

 You smoke and bitch on your coffee break

 You grab that phone, rehearse those lines

 Then you call home sayin` you gotta work tonight

 You hit those bars, you buy some drinks

 For the first one who looks good and thinks

 you`re cool,

 You`re closer to nowhere...

Bridge

You fake it so well

 Nobody can tell

 You buy what they sell

 You`re going places....

 You`re going places....

 Now you go to work and you work all day

 You smoke and bitch on your coffee break

 You share your plans and you swear you`ll quit

 Maybe next year or the year after it

 You hit those bars, you have some drinks

 You take those pills, you go to sleep

 You wake up someday all alone

 You realize another year is gone

 You`re closer to nowhere

 You`re closer to nowhere

 And all these signs will be your guides

 But you must pay attention

 And all the lights that line the sides

 Are beautiful, don`t miss them...

You`re closer to nowhere...

Just play A and D chords until the final A chord which rings.
