There once was a writer
     G            D
He liked to write songs
D           G         D
He had the eyes of a fighter
       G         D
Never did nobody wrong

G A D
 
D        A         D        G                D
He then became a lover the day he found his heart
        Bm          D                    G                  D          
In the words of a hooker who walked the cold streets after dark

            Bm                                    G                D           
She said,  Where d'you think your going with that look upon your face
             Bm      
Nowhere for you
           G          Bm        A                   D        A   G
He said,  I'm going nowhere, would you like to come too      oooo

          G           Bm        A                   D
He said,  I'm going nowhere, would you like to come too

G  A  D
        G                     D
So they made sweet love by a streetlight
           G                      D
While the raindrops washed their sins
           G                  D
And as he trespassed into her life
      G                    D
Well she fell in love with him


D                   G
While touching her face
        D       
Looking for a love
   G                 D            
He began to kiss her eyes 
            Bm         D                     G          D
But at the taste of a tear drop he heard the lady say goodbye


D            Bm                                      D
So he said,  Where d'you think your going with that look upon your face
             Bm
Nowhere for you
          G          Bm      A                     D      A    Bm 
She said, I'm going nowhere would you like to come too   ooo  Yeah


          G         Bm   
She said, I'm going nowhere
         A                          D
He said,  I would love to come with you
                  A                        G     D
                 I would love to come with you
