(intro) C
C
I come from just the other side of nowhere,
F
to this big time lonesome town,
G
they got a lotta of ice an' snow here,
F C
ain’t half as cold as all the people I've found.
C7
Everywhere I try to go here,
F
somebody’s always trying to bring me down,
G G7 C C7
I’ve seen about enough to know where I’ll be bound.
F G
I've got a mind to see the headlights shinin' on that old white
C Am
line between my heart and home,
F G
sick of spendin' Sundays, wishin' they were Mondays,
C C7
sittin' in a park alone.
F G
Give my best to anyone who's left, who’s ever done me
C Am
any lovin' way but wrong,
F G
and tell them that’s the pride of just the other side
G7
of nowhere's goin' home.
C
Takin' nothing back to show there,
F
for these dues that I’ve paid,
G
but the soul I almost sold here,
F C
and the body I've been givin' away.
C7
Fadin' from the neon nightime glow here,
F
headin' for the light of day,
G G7 C C7
just the other side of nowhere, goin' home.

sittin' in a park alone.

Give my best to anyone who's left, who’s ever done me
C Am
any lovin' way but wrong,

of nowhere's goin' home.
