Track 8 of 11 on the album "The Good Ole Days" (1996) [Intro] E A E A [Verse 1]
   E
As daylight was dawning, I woke up this morning

      E                          F#m
Still feeling the pain from last night

        B7
And the dream of a woman with a beckoning body

        B7                         E
Another dream that didn’t turn out right

     E
I’ve had many dreams and tried many schemes

          E                      A
That keep dying as I’m trying to win

        B7
With no feel of belonging once more this morning

  B7                  E
I woke up in nowhere again
[Chorus]
    A                                                      E
Somewhere beyond nowhere, there’s somewhere I wish I could find

       E                                               B7
I keep combing the beaches, searching the reaches of my mind

       E                                              A    F#m
Is the answer within me? Wish someone could show me a sign

    B7                                             E      A
And point me to somewhere so I could leave nowhere behind
E A [Verse 2]
     E
Back alleys are gloomy, the city park’s roomy

E                           F#m
I’ve tried to sleep there before

        B7
But the benches are hard and they don’t have the contours

      B7                      E
And a body wakes up stiff and sore

     E
So I sleep where I can with the darkness at hand

E                           A
Whispering the mysteries of time

         B7
Is there hope in the future with someone who will care

    B7                      E
And somewhere a place I can find
[Chorus]
    A                                                      E
Somewhere beyond nowhere, there’s somewhere I wish I could find

       E                                               B7
I keep combing the beaches, searching the reaches of my mind

       E                                              A    F#m
Is the answer within me? Wish someone could show me a sign

    B7                                             E      C#m
And point me to somewhere so I could leave nowhere behind

    F#m                      B7                    E      A
And point me to somewhere so I could leave nowhere behind
E A E
