       A
Do you know who you are?
       D
Do you ever think about it?
       A
If you were told it`s a place
          D
Would you drive until you found it?

             A
Or would you turn down a street
         D                                 F#min
That you know would lead to where you were before?
            D                        F#min
You call it home, but are you really sure
            D
That`s your home?
       
       A
Do you know what you want?
         D
Have you ever reconsidered
       A
What a trip we are on
             D
And it`s the only ride we`re given?

             A
If you could fly, would you try?
           D                                F#min
Would your feet stay firmly planted on the ground?
           D                           F#min     
Can you explain why the only place you go
       D
Is to waste?

        A  
Now you go to work and you work all day
     D
You smoke and bitch on your coffee break
    A
You tell some jokes to kill that time
        D
Til the boss comes back and at the stroke of 5
     F#min              Chord E*
You hit those bars, you have some drinks
     A                Bmin 
You drown in all your long lost dreams
   D               E
Oh nooooooooo, 
                 A
you`re closer to nowhere
D
closer to nowhere

chord E*:

A-7-|
E-4-|

       A
Do you know who you love?
        D           
Can you say those words with feeling?
            A
Or when you look in those eyes
         D
Is there someone else you`re seeing?
[ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/j/jen-foster/211652.html ]
       A
Do you dream of a day
          D                               F#min
You could take the love without running away?
           D                         F#min
What is it now? Do you need a little space?
                   D
Or are you wanting out?

        A
Now you go to work and you work all day
     D
You smoke and bitch on your coffee break
    A                                     
You grab that phone, rehearse those lines
         D
Then you call home sayin` you gotta work tonight
    F#min               E*  
You hit those bars, you buy some drinks
        A                   Bmin          
For the first one who looks good and thinks 
       D     E
you`re cool,   
                  F#min  
You`re closer to nowhere...

Bridge: 
E, D, E, F#min, E, D, D

Bmin              D
   You fake it so well
           Bmin
Nobody can tell
                   D
You buy what they sell
(rest)              A      D
You`re going places....
                    A      D
You`re going places....

        A                   
Now you go to work and you work all day
    D
You smoke and bitch on your coffee break
     A                
You share your plans and you swear you`ll quit
       D
Maybe next year or the year after it
    F#min               E*
You hit those bars, you have some drinks
    A                     Bmin 
You take those pills, you go to sleep
    F#min           E*
You wake up someday all alone
    A       Bmin            D      E
You realize another year is gone
                 A        D
You`re closer to nowhere
                A          D
You`re closer to nowhere

     A            
And all these signs will be your guides
    D
But you must pay attention
    A
And all the lights that line the sides
    D
Are beautiful, don`t miss them...


You`re closer to nowhere...

Just play A and D chords until the final A chord which rings.
