G All the things they said would happen to you C G Don't ya know they're all comin true A C G Goin' nowhere fast G Nothing's strange as when it seems C G You're living out all your worst possible dreams A C G Goin' nowhere fast G Bad times, worse times all the times in between C G I stumble in my shadow, tangle in the trees A C G Goin' nowhere fast G I learn my lesson and I learn it again C G I heard what they said, "Live fast and die stupid" A C G Goin' nowhere fast G My compass is spinnin' like a gamblin' wheel C G It takes a hideous misfortune for to tell how I feel A C G Goin' nowhere fast G I threw it all away like shoes into the street C G These terrible things will tear me in three A C G Goin' nowhere fast G I don't care what time will tell C G Just tell me if I might as well be halfway to hell A C G Goin' nowhere fast G I'm sick through my skin with silence and doom C G I break my back, I cry on the moon A C G Goin' nowhere fast A C G Goin' nowhere fast
