D G D
Don't waste your life behind that guitar
Bm G
You may get gone, but you won't get far
D G D
You're not the first, boy you won't be the last
G
And you can tell us all about it when you come crawlin' back
Bm
Cause that road you're on, it just winds and winds
G
You're spinning your wheels, and wastin' your time
[Chorus]
D G D
But when the lights come up and I hear the band
G
And where they said I'd never be is right here where I stand
Bm A C/G
I see the crowd and I look around, and I can't find an empty chair

Not bad for a boy goin' nowhere

Now I get these calls, out on the road

So don't forget us little folks

When you crash and burn, remember we told you so

Bm G
And I need to thank the Father for every song I sing
D A7
And for everyone who ever said I'd never be anything
Bm A G
It took a whole lot of 'yes I wills' and 'I don't cares'
Bm A G
A lot of run down dives and bars and rain-soaked fairs
Bm A E7
To get to all of you down here and way back there
G A Bm
Not bad for a guy goin' nowhere
G A D
Not bad for a boy goin' nowhere
