Guy Goin Nowhere chords by Garth Brooks

• Difficulty: Beginner

🎸 Verse 1:
          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
   G       A    D
Not bad for a boy goin' nowhere

🎸 Verse 2:
         D     G    D
Now I get these calls, out on the road
           Bm      G
Yeah, we heard your song on the radio
      D     G         D
We always said you'd make it big back then
     G
Yeah and I tell everybody that I knew you back when
      Bm
So don't forget us little folks
          C/G
When you crash and burn, remember we told you so


🎸 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
   G       A    D
Not bad for a guy goin' nowhere


🎸 Outro:
    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
