[Intro]
G#m B E  x2


[Verse 1]
  G#m     F#       E
Today you looked alright
             B
But forcing smiles has
      E
to be painful What's the
          G#m     F#
point of speeding to red
E
lights? We both know this
B                   E
ain't what you were made for


[Chorus 1]
              B
It's not your home it's
               E
a road at West End All
of the places that you've
G#m
ever been to keep on strangling
   B
you I guess I'll just make
  E
believe the sun will rise
         G#m
when you leave And wave goodbye
to this lonely nowhere town


[Post Chorus]
G#m B E  x2


[Verse 2]
            G#m      F#
You spent a lifetime on
     E
your own You know it's
B               E
cleaner without baggage
                 G#m  F#
Tried but end up traveling
 E             B
alone Pack any hope
             E
that you can salvage


[Chorus 2]
              B
It's not your home it's
               E
a road at West End All
of the places that you've
G#m
ever been to keep on strangling
   B
you I guess I'll just make
  E
believe the sun will rise
         G#m
when you leave And wave goodbye
                       E   B G#m
to this lonely nowhere town
F#       G#m B   E   B G#m F# B
  it's a nowhere town


[Bridge]
E                      B
  She drove her yellow Ford up 94
       G#m
We all know about the need to
F#                G#m     B
wander around the country to
    E
quit I put some coffee on sat
B                        G#m
on the couch Watched the late
                  F#
autumn leaves and I tried
                     E
not to think about it


[Outro]
G#m B E  x4
