[B] [E] He sat at the bar talking about his car [A] with Alice.
[F#m] She [E] was heading out to Vegas, running from her dark [A] days in Dallas.
[F#m] [E] She had a brother she could stay with, she said he didn't know [A] she was coming.
[F#m] Yeah, but [E] her daddy never guessed the kind of person she [A] was becoming.
[E] Jimmy Moran and his one man band played [A] every note like it was his last.
[B] He [C#m] played strangers in the night too slow, and
[B] always played Neil Diamond songs too [E] fast, all right.
20 miles [A] south of nowhere, [B] get me [E] at night.
20 miles [A] out of nowhere, [B] [E] read him the rewatch of sports TV and
[A] begin to write something [F#m] down.
[E] Tommy Turetsky twitched his regrets, let [A] the Celtics [B] come into town.
[E] A door came in, she was thinking of gin, she [A] referred to me as [F#m] singer.
[E] She was beautiful not long ago before [A] everything [E] began to [F#m] fail.
Now [E] it's been in the bathroom for so long now, he [A] either jumped out the window or died.
[B] [C#m] Everything's been so good around this place, but
[B] everything's been done, or at least [E] been tried, all right.
20 miles south [A] of nowhere, [Em] [B] get [E] pearls and swine.
20 miles south [A] of nowhere, [B] do it my [E] type.
20 miles [A] south of nowhere.
[B] [A] [E]
[F#m] [E] [B]
[E] Next chance lands on the near north side, everybody's watching the news.
Music comes back when friends comes on,
[A] you've been the man singing [E] the Irish blues.
Colleen's just got a 550 SL, I [A] wonder what the hell she's [F#m] doing here.
[E] She asked me if I wanted a gold motor ride, I said [A] babe, I just stole [F#m] your beer.
She [E] wants everyone to think she's made it, but I [A] know her mama bought her that.
[E] A [C#m] guy asked me if I was an artist, I [B] said a con artist.
[E] Mo Freer and turned my back.
20 miles [A] south of nowhere, [B] get me [E] a nice.
20 miles [A] south of nowhere, [B] do it [E] my time.
20 miles south [A] of nowhere, [E] with pearls and swine.
20 miles south [A] of [E] nowhere,
[A]
[B] get me [E] a nice.
