A
Do you know who you are?
D
Do you ever think about it?
A
If you were told it`s a place
D
Would you drive until you found it?
A
Or would you turn down a street
D F#min
That you know would lead to where you were before?
D F#min
You call it home, but are you really sure
D
That`s your home?
A
Do you know what you want?
D
Have you ever reconsidered
A
What a trip we are on
D
And it`s the only ride we`re given?
A
If you could fly, would you try?
D F#min
Would your feet stay firmly planted on the ground?
D F#min
Can you explain why the only place you go
D
Is to waste?
A
Now you go to work and you work all day
D
You smoke and bitch on your coffee break
A
You tell some jokes to kill that time
D
Til the boss comes back and at the stroke of 5
F#min Chord E*
You hit those bars, you have some drinks
A Bmin
You drown in all your long lost dreams
D E
Oh nooooooooo,
A
you`re closer to nowhere
D
closer to nowhere
chord E*:

A-7-|
E-4-|
A
Do you know who you love?
D
Can you say those words with feeling?
A
Or when you look in those eyes
D
Is there someone else you`re seeing?
A
Do you dream of a day
D F#min
You could take the love without running away?
D F#min
What is it now? Do you need a little space?
D
Or are you wanting out?
A
Now you go to work and you work all day
D
You smoke and bitch on your coffee break
A
You grab that phone, rehearse those lines
D
Then you call home sayin` you gotta work tonight
F#min E*
You hit those bars, you buy some drinks
A Bmin
For the first one who looks good and thinks
D E
you`re cool,
F#min
You`re closer to nowhere...
Bridge:
E, D, E, F#min, E, D, D
Bmin D
You fake it so well
Bmin
Nobody can tell
D
You buy what they sell
(rest) A D
You`re going places....
A D
You`re going places....
A
Now you go to work and you work all day
D
You smoke and bitch on your coffee break
A
You share your plans and you swear you`ll quit
D
Maybe next year or the year after it
F#min E*
You hit those bars, you have some drinks
A Bmin
You take those pills, you go to sleep
F#min E*
You wake up someday all alone
A Bmin D E
You realize another year is gone
A D
You`re closer to nowhere
A D
You`re closer to nowhere
A
And all these signs will be your guides
D
But you must pay attention
A
And all the lights that line the sides
D
Are beautiful, don`t miss them...
You`re closer to nowhere...
Just play A and D chords until the final A chord which rings.
