Band: Stiff Little Fingers
Song: Here We Are Nowhere
Album: Inflammable Material
Year: 1979
Tuning: Standard
Great, fast simple little punk tune. Straight chords throughout the song. Although, if you
listen to the song, you'll notice in the first verse you let the chords ring out and
in the second verse their played in a choppy style. Also in the second chorus, pick
the strings of the D and Bm chords rather than just playing them. You'll hear it if you listen for it.
[D]Friday night's here, w[A]hat's the scene?
[D]Nothing to do, y'kno[A]w what I mean?
[G]Nothing on the telly, there i[A]s no late-night [D]show[Bm]
[G]No shows in town, there is no[A] place to [D]go[Bm]
[G]Here we are nowhere, now[A]here left to g[D]o
[D]Is it a crime t[A]o be young
[D]Cos every time we ha[A]ve some fun
[G]They put us down and t[A]ell us that we're w[D]rong[Bm]
[G]Every time they s[A]ing the same old s[D]ong[Bm]
[G]Here we are nowhere ma[A]ybe that's where we b[D]elong
[F#m]You know it's not but what d[Bm]o we do
[F#m]Don't look at me now I'm loo[Bm]king at you
[F#m]And sitting there won't ch[Bm]ange a thing
[G]Must we only wait and s[A]ee what the future will br[D]ing
