[Intro] 
(Acapella)
        G                D                 C                      G
Well we know where we're going,     but we don't know where we've been.
       G               D                   C                    D#  D
And we know what we're knowing,     but we can't say what we've see-een.
          G          D                     C                   D# F
And we're not little children           ...and we know what we wa-ant.
        G         D                        C               D# D
And the future is certain.         Give us time to work it ou-ut.

[Chorus 1]
E                E
      We're on a road to nowhere;
C#m             C#m
      Come on inside.
E                 E
      Takin' that ride to nowhere.
C#m                   C#
      We'll take that ride.

A                   A               E               B
      I'm feelin' okay this mornin'         and you know
A                    A          E                   B
      we're on the road to paradise.        Here we go.

Here we go...

     We'll take that ride

[Verse 2]
A                               E                    B
     Maybe you wonder where you are;         I don't care.
A                               E                    B
   Here is where time is on our side;       Take you there,
         E          E          E           E
take you there.

[Chorus 3]
E               E
     We're on a road to nowhere

     Ha! Ha!

[Bridge]
          E                      E
There's a city in my mind, come along and take that ride
           C#m                 C#m
and it's alright. Baby, it's alright.
          E                      E
And it's very far away, but it's growing day-by-day
            C#m               C#m
and it's alright. Baby, it's alright.
          E                           E
Would you like to come along? You can help me sing this song (We're on a road to nowhere)
           C#m                 C#m
and it's alright. Baby, it's alright.
         E                                E
They can tell you what to do, but they'll make a fool of you. (We're on a road to nowhere)
             C#m                 C#m
Well, it's alright. Baby, it's alright.
[Repeat x2]

[Chorus 4]
E                E

     Hey!
[Repeat x3]

We're on a road to nowhere...
