Nowhere Fast

[Intro]
D A G D A
G

[Verse 1]
          D              A
There's a skyline city buried in my mind
   G
Traces of a man long left behind
    D             A                           G
I swear I haven't changed but some think I might
    D             A                                   G
I swear I haven't changed and it ain't a matter of time
        D                        A
Thought moving on something would fill my time
      G
But again I'm just as empty as a bottle of wine
     D
Oh Lord,
         A                         G
I can't erase what's wired in my mind
      D
Oh Lord,
         A                         G
I can't erase what's wired in my mind

[Chorus]
D               A
Dove in deep to cut in my roots
   G
Prayin' to the Lord I'll find my truth
        D
Right now,
                 A
right here don't feel like anywhere
G D                       A
  Through these days that beat my ass
      G
And learning you just can't get nowhere fast
      D
Somehow,
          A                   G
someday I know I'll make it there
      D
Somehow,
          A                   G
someday I know I'll make it there

[Verse 2]
D A
G          D                   A
 There's a drop dead smile and a beautiful mind
         G
That I traded for a dollar and a couple of lines
     D       A
I sing every night,
                           G
but still it just ain't right
        D                      A
And I remember holding hope in the stinging cold
           G
Said I'd make a little money and move on home
         D               A
But we both know that it just won't go that way
G         D               A                   G
 But we both know that it just won't go that way

[Chorus]
D               A
Dove in deep to cut in my roots
   G
Prayin' to the Lord I'll find my truth
        D
Right now,
                 A
right here don't feel like anywhere
G D                       A
  Through these days that beat my ass
      G
And learning you just can't get nowhere fast
      D
Somehow,
          A                   G
someday I know I'll make it there
                       D A
I know I'll make it there

[Post-Chorus]
G                             D A
 Lord, I know I'll make it there

[Outro]
G          D              A
 There's a skyline city buried in my mind
   G
Traces of a man long left behind
    D             A                           G
I swear I haven't changed but some think I might
    D             A                                   G
I swear I haven't changed and it ain't a matter of time
