Todd Snider – Workin On A Song (Guitar)

   G
My first day in Nashville

        C                G
Didn’t seem like much of one

G                         D
Drinkin' till I fallen asleep out in the sun

G                           C               G
Workin' on a song I guess I’m still workin' on

              G              D              G
It’s called “where will I be now that I’m gone”

         G                           C     G
When the idea first came to me I was only 22

   G                    D
at 25 I realized it was all that I could do

   G                               C              G
To make it to the end, but then I guess I always knew

     G                       D          G
if I never finished I would die trying to

      D                              G
last night I thought I had it right here in my hotel

    D                       G
It faded out the further asleep that I fell

     D                            G
When I woke up this morning I was more than twice my age

       C                                 D
And I left myself a note right here on another empty page

             G    C            G 
Where will I go, Now that I’m gone

           G                             D
They said maybe you’ve been chasing that song too long

      G                         C                    G
It’s turned into a song about a song you’re working on

             G                     D
I mean it’d gone man, c'mon let it go

              G                             C                G
But you know giving up a dream is just like making one come true

      G                                        D
It’s easy to sit around talking about but it’s hard to go out and do

     G                              C                G
but for this one last question I’ll give up on this song

G                 D               G
  where will I go   now that I’m gone

              C                   G
now that I’m gone,  now that I’m gone

G                 D             G
Where will I go, now that I’m gone
