Closer To Nowhere

Here's my tab for "Closer to Nowhere" by Jen Foster. It is based on an acoustic live performance.

There are some unfamiliar chords but the song is easy to play.

Enjoy :)

Do you know who you are? Do you ever think about it?

If you were told it's a place, would you drive until you found it?

Would you turn down a street that you know would lead

To where you were before?

You call it home, but are you really sure that's your home?

Do you know what you want? Have you ever reconsidered

What a trip we are on and it's the only ride we're given?

If you could fly, would you try?

Would your feet stay firmly planted on the ground?

Can you explain why the only place you go is to waste?

Now you go to work and you work all day

You smoke and bitch on your coffee break

You tell some jokes to kill that time

Til the boss comes back and at the stroke of 5

Em Em*

You hit those bars, you have some drinks

You drown in all your long lost dreams

Oh no,

You're closer to nowhere

Do you know who you love? Can you say those words with feeling?

Or when you look in those eyes, is there someone else you're seeing?

Do you dream of a day you could take the love

Without running away?

What is it now? Do you need a little space?

Or are you wanting out?

Now you go to work and you work all day

You smoke and bitch on your coffee break

You grab that phone, rehearse those lines

Then you call home sayin' you gotta work tonight

Em Em*

You hit those bars, you buy some drinks

For the first one who looks good

And thinks you're cool

You're closer to nowhere

Em7*

You're closer to nowhere

Cadd9* Em7*

You fake it so well, nobody can tell

Cadd9* G Cadd9

You buy what they sell, you're going places

You're going places

Now you go to work and you work all day

You smoke and bitch on your coffee break

You share your plans and you swear you'll quit

Maybe next year or the year after it

Em Em*

You hit those bars, you have some drinks

You take those pills, you go to sleep

Em Em*

You wake up someday all alone

You realize another year is gone

You're closer to nowhere

And all these signs will be your guides

But you must pay attention

And all the lights that line the side

Are beautiful don't miss them

You're closer to nowhere
