                    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
aint half as cold as all the people I've found.
                                   C7
Everywhere I try to go here,
                         F
somebodys always trying to bring me down,
            G                                   G7                        C      C7
Ive seen about enough to know where Ill 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, whos ever done me
 C                            Am
any lovin' way but wrong,
        F                                         G
and tell them thats 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 Ive 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.

                  F                                         G

 C                                         Am

 F                                         G

C                           C7
    sittin' in a park alone.
                F                                G
Give my best to anyone who's left, whos ever done me
 C                            Am
any lovin' way but wrong,
        F                                         G
and tell them thats the pride of just the other side
                               G7
of nowhere's goin' home.
