Alec Benjamin - The Way to Nowhere chords
Start Jamming...
[F#] She's on her way to work, her heart is wearing thin
The tattoos leave a mark, from everywhere she's been
[E] Cause she's never in one place, [F#] she takes it on the chin
Now tears are welling up, and they are rushing down her skin
While she's pushing through the door, she [G#] hides behind a grin
But no one really knows, how sad she feels within
Oh-oh-oh [C#]-oh-oh-oh-oh [B]
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
[G#m] Life goes on, put a [F#] sad song [E] on
She's [B]
trying to go the distance, but she's running out of love
It doesn't make a difference, no it's never quite enough
[F#m] Buys chocolate bars and magazines, the things that make her [E] smile
But she falls down, down, [C#m] down
She's on the [B] way back to work at seven, when the morning sun is up
[F#] She goes home at eleven, with her coat all buttoned up
[F#m] Buys cigarettes and DVDs, the things that make her smile
But she falls down, [C#m] down, down
She's on the [B] way to nowhere
[F#]
Driving through the rain, to her house right up the road
Her name is on the mailbox, but it never feels like home
[E] When she's climbing into bed, you know [C#] she's climbing all [E] alone
When she's climbing into bed, she's climbing on her own
Oh-oh-oh-oh [A#m]-oh-oh-oh [B] Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
[G#m]
Life goes on, [F#] put a sad song on
[E]
[B] She's trying to go the distance, but she's running out of [F#] love
It doesn't make a difference, no it's never quite enough
[F#m] Buys chocolate bars and magazines, the things that make her smile
But [E] she falls down, [C#m] down, down
She's [B] on the way back to work at seven, when the morning sun is up
[F#] She goes home at eleven, with her coat all buttoned up
[F#m] Buys cigarettes and DVDs, the things that make her smile
[E] But she [B] falls down, down, down
[F#] She's on the way to nowhere
[E] He's working at the bar, [C#m] and takes a later shift
[B] A little drunk and far too young to end up just like this
When [E] he takes her by the hands, [C#m] she does not resist
[B] They run away to nowhere, because nowhere sure beats this
She's trying to go the distance, now she's got a little love
[F#] A little makes a difference, even if it's not enough
[F#m] The chocolate bars and magazines, just leave them on the shelf
[E] And put them down, down, down
She's on the way [B] back to work at seven, when the morning sun is up
[F#] They drive home at eleven, to smoke cigarettes and [F#m] stuff
The DVDs and memories, you keep them to [C#] yourself
On the way down, down, [C#m] down
[F#] They're on the way to nowhere
