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

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

          E
There's a city in my mind, come along and take that ride
           C#m
And it's alright. Baby, it's alright
          E
And it's very far away, but it's growing day-by-day
            C#m
And it's alright. Baby, it's alright
          E
Would you like to come along? You can help me sing this song (We're on a road to nowhere)
