She Ain't Goin' Nowhere

Drop D tuning


D               G            D - G - D
Standin' on the gone side of leavin',
    Em                A               D
She found a thumb and stuck it in the breeze.
            D               G              D - G - D
She'll take anything that's goin' close to somewhere;
        A               A7                 D
She can lay it down and live it like she'd please.


    Bm              G                    D
But she ain't goin' nowhere - she's just leavin'.
Bm              G                  D       G
She ain't goin' nowhere; she can't breathe in.
Em              A                       D
She ain't goin' home, and that's for sure.

Well, the wind had its way with her hair,
And the blues had a way with her smile.
She had a way of her own,
Just like prisoners have a way with a file.

She ain't goin' nowhere - she's just leavin'.
She ain't goin' nowhere; she can't breathe in.
She ain't goin' home, and that's for sure.

She's not sittin' down and cryin' on her suitcase,
She had no second thoughts by her road.
But she's got feelings that need some repairin',
And she did not give a damn that it showed.

She ain't goin' nowhere - she's just leavin'.
She ain't goin' nowhere; she can't breathe in.
She ain't goin' home, and that's for sure.

She ain't goin' nowhere - she's just leavin'.
She ain't goin' nowhere; she can't breathe in.
She ain't goin' home, and that's for sure.
Now she ain't goin' home - that's for sure.
