Won’t Know Where I’m Goin’

A                                 Dsus

What happened to the times?

A                                              Dsus

We worked our shitty jobs but never seemed to mind

A                                    D         

Now we play a different game

A                                             D

Climb the corporate ladder for monetary gains

 

Don’t understand the news

Don’t care about which toothpaste I choose

Is there something waitin outside my door

Gotta get outta here, I can’t take it anymore

 

(Chorus)

        C                                    G              D

But I won’t know where I’m goin till I get there

         C                              G                  D

And I hope it’s someplace that I wanna be

   C                                 G              D

I don’t know where I’m goin till I get there

C                                G                                             D

Perhaps you’d like to take a ride/trip/go along with me

 

Can’t believe the things I see

Folks getting married on national TV

You know, it’s getting kinda sad

When we stop wishin for the things we never had

 

There’s got to be a better place than this

Some neighborhood that don’t smell like piss

Gotta get outta here and head for higher ground

Don’t look for me I don’t know where I’ll be found

 

(Repeat chorus)

 

I always hoped I be the one

Livin the easy life bakin in the sun

Broken bottles litter my front lawn

I’m gonna be history before the break of dawn

 

(Repeat chorus)
