The Way To Nowhere Uke tab by Alec Benjamin

[Verse 1]
      G
She's on her way to work

Her heart is wearing thin
     Em
The tattoos leave a mark

From everywhere she's been
            Am
Cause she's never in one place
    C
She takes it on the chin
     G
Now tears are welling up

And they are rushing down her skin
            Am
While she's pushing trough the door
     C
She hides behind a grin
    G
But no one really knows

How sad she feels within
Am C G
Oh, oh
Am                  C             G  D
Life goes on, put a sad song on

[Chorus]
      G
She's tryna go the distance, but she's running out of love
   D
It doesn't make a difference, no it's never quite enough
     Am
Buys chocolate bars and magazines, the things that make her smile
               C      G    D
But she falls down, down, down

She's on her way
G
Back to work at 7, when the morning sun is up
    D
She goes home at 11 with her coat all buttoned up
      Am
Buys cigarettes and DVDs, the thing that make her smile
              C       G    D
But she falls down, down, down
                     G
She's on her way to nowhere

[Verse 2]
G
Driving in the rain to her house right up the road
    Em
Her name is on the mailbox but it never feels like home
            Am                                 C
When she's climbing into bed, you know, she's climbing all alone
             G
When she's climbing into bed

She's climbing on her own
Am C G
Oh, oh
Am                  C             G D
Life goes on, put a sad song on

[Chorus]
      G
She's tryna go the distance, but she's running out of love
    D
It doesn't make a difference, no it's never quite enough
       Am
Buys chocolate bars and magazines, the things that make her smile
                C    G     D
But she falls down, down, down

She's on her way
 G
Back to work at 7, when the morning sun is up
    D
She goes home at 11 with her coat all buttoned up
      Am
Buys cigarettes and DVDs, the thing that make her smile
               C     G     D
But she falls down, down, down
                     G
She's on her way to nowhere

[Verse 3]
      G
He's working at the bar

And takes a later shift
   Em
A little drunk and far too young to end up just like this
        Am
When he takes her by the hand
C
She does not resist
        G                D
They're on their way to nowhere because nowhere sure beats this

[Chorus]
      G
She's tryna go the distance, now she's got a little love
   D
A little makes a difference, even if it's not enough
    Am
The chocolate bars and magazines, just leave 'em on the shelf
             C     G     D
And put 'em down, down, down

She's on her way
G
Back to work at 7, when the morning sun is up
      D
They drive home at 11 to smoke cigarettes and stuff
    Am                                                         C     G     D
The DVDs and memories, you keep them to yourself from the way down, down, down
                         G
They're on their way to nowhere
