Intro. in D

D
E is missing,
D
He's not in his room
D
Rome is no longer behind him.

lllllD
The gris-gris heard there was water on Mars
lllllllllD
And he's on his way to fix it,
llllBb                        D
His fingernails are missing, one through ten
llllllllllllGm               D
And there's ink all over the place.

Chorus:

D
Nowhere....was not here,
G              D
Nowhere's not there,
Em7        Gm  D
Nowhere is nowhere.

llllA7                    D
His soul's in the corner very uptight,
lllllA7                  D
It's ugly, but it's not meant to be,
lllA7                  D
A derelict lighthouse signalling men
lllG                     D
In shipwrecks under the ocean.

D                     D
Secret bruises from a writing machine
lllG                    D
Dismantled in a winter landscape,
lllllBb                       D
His fingernails are missing, one through ten
llllllllllllGm               D
And there's ink all over the place.

Chorus:

D
Nowhere....was not here,
G              D
Nowhere's not there,
Em7        Gm  D
Nowhere is nowhere.

Ad Lib. Instrumental in D

Chorus (x2)
