Song: A Self Called Nowhere
[Verse 1]
I'm Gmsitting on the curb D7by the
Bbempty parking lot Eof the
Cmstore where they Dsus4let me plaDy the orgGmanE  
I'm Amwaiting for my rAmmaj7ide
But I Cmwant to wait inside Ebmof the Bbstore
where they lAet me play the Bborgan
[Pre-Chorus]
But I'm Ebmthinking of a wooden chaiFr
In the Ebmroom at the top of the staiFr
EbmN.C.
And I'm looking down the stairwell
at the vanishing
[Chorus]
Gbdot on the map of the spoEt
Let me take you Ebthere
The dotted Gbline surrounding the mEind
of a self-called nEbowhere
It's a thing named "Gbit" in a bottomless Epit
You can't see it tEbhere
The sunken heGbad that lies in the Ebed
of a self-called noEbwhere
[Bridge] (Chorus chords)
[Verse 2]
GmStanding in my D7yard
Bbwhere they tore down tEhe garage
Cmto make rooDsus4m for the toDrn down gaGmrageE  
I'Amm looking foAmmaj7r my car
But CmI must've Ebmsold my caBbr
when I needeAd to buy an electriBbc organ
[Pre-Chorus]
But I'm Ebmthinking of a wooden chaiFr
In the Ebmroom at the top of the staiFr
EbmN.C.
And I'm looking down the stairwell
at
[Chorus]
the vanishing dGbot on the map of the spEot
Let me take you Ebthere
The dotted Gbline surrounding the mEind
of a self-called nEbowhere
It's a thing named "Gbit" in a bottomless Epit
You can't see it tEbhere
The sunken heGbad that lies in the Ebed
of a self-called noEbwhere
[Bridge] (Chorus chords)
[Chorus] (w/ phaser)
the vanishing dot on the map of the spot
Let me take you there
The dotted line surrounding the mind
of a self-called nowhere
It's a thing named "it" in a bottomless pit
You can't see it there
The sunken head that lies in the bed
of a self-called nowhere
