Guy Goin Nowhere

                 G
Don't waste your life behind that guitar
            C
You may get gone, but you won't get far
               G
You're not the first, boy you won't be the last
            C
And you can tell us all about it when you come crawlin' back
                       Em                    D
Cause that road you're on, it just winds and winds
                          C
You're spinning your wheels, and wastin' your time

             G
But when the lights come up and I hear the band
    C
And where they said I'd never be is right here where I stand
          Em                      D                          C
I see the crowd and I look around, and I can't find an empty chair
              D            G
Not bad for a boy goin' nowhere

                G
Now I get these calls, out on the road
                   C
Yeah we heard your song on the radio
          G
We always said you'd make it big back then
         C
Yeah and I tell everybody that I knew you back when
         Em                    D
So don't forget us little folks
                         C
When you crash and burn, remember we told you so

             G
But when the lights come up and I hear the band
    C
And where they said I'd never be is right here where I stand
          Em                      D                          C
I see the crowd and I look around, and I can't find an empty chair
              D            G
Not bad for a boy goin' nowhere

      Em                D          C            Em
And I need to thank the Father for every song I sing
        G                          D
And for everyone who ever said I'd never be anything
          Em                  D                   C
It took a whole lot of 'yes I wills' and 'I don't cares'
          Em                D                    C
A lot of run down dives and bars and rain soaked fairs
          Em              D                 C
To get to all of you down here and way back there
    C         D           Em
Not bad for a guy goin' nowhere
    C         D            G
Not bad for a boy goin' nowhere
