Capo 4

                     D                      G 
He's down a dead end road and he don't know where
                A                       D
The right front tire is gonna need some air
              D   D7               G 
Up around the bend just a two pump place
            A                      D
So he pulls in to get his bearings straight

He thumbs back, back through his life
The page cut just like a knife
One by one he tears them out
How he got so lost he don't know how


Chorus:
     Bm                   A
In a nowhere town with a nowhere name
     G                 D 
He's nowhere closer to where he came from
Bm              A
Dead sure no one is to blame
G                      D
He's just off the map again


It starts to rain, he's gonna wait it out
Gonna rest his eyes, gonna face his doubts
He pours a drink in a paper cup
He goes to sleep and he don't wake up

Chorus twice
