Elliott Smith - Going Nowhere guitar tab
Going Nowhere
-------------
Ok, so this is the tab to Going Nowhere, not checked at all, i'm just
transcripting the way I play it. If you have any corrections (and you
will have) let us know!
It's quite simple anyway, there is just one basic riff:
Riff 1 : (a)
C Cdim C5 Cdim C Esus4 B5 Esus4 Em Am Am6 Am7
|-------2----3-------2-----2--0------||------------------------0---2---3-|
|-------1----1-------1-----1--1------||-----0---0-----0-0------1---1---1-|
|----0--0----0----0--0-----0--0----0-||-----2/4-4-42-2-0----2-2---2---2-|
|------------------------------------||-----2/4-4-42-2-2----------------|
|--3------------3----3--3--3--3--3---||---2-2/4-4-42-2-2--0-------------|
|------------------------------------||-0--------------------------------|
On the fourth time, play this instead: And before the chorus:
(b) (c)
Esus4 B5 Am Am6 Am7 E5 D
|-----------0---------0---2---3-| |---------------2--2--2--2---|
|-----0---3-----------1---1---1-| |---------------3--3--3--3---|
|-----2/4-----4-----2-2---2---2-| |---------------2--2--2--2---|
|-----2/4-----------------------| |-2--2--2--2----0--0--0--0---|
|---2-2/4---------0-------------| |-2--2--2--2-----------------|
|-0-----------------------------| |-0--0--0--0-----------------|
Intro: Riff1(a)x3 Riff1(b)
Verse 1
Riff 1(a)
He waved hello, Started like a mile,
Riff 1(a)
We met-- There's no Changing my mind,
Riff 1(a)
I won't walk the Stairs with you tonight
Riff 1(b)
Goin' nowhere
Verse 2
The clock moved a Quarter of a turn
The time it took a cigarette to burn
She said, You got A lot of things to learn
Riff 1(c)
Goin' nowhere
Chorus
G D F C
I saw you move A certain way
Dm Am F C
I missed you a lot:
G D F C
I turned to this Damned place
Dm Am G F
Shoulda been forgot
Verse 3 (like Verse 1)
Echoes drown our Conversation out
Echoes that only Seem to bring about
A silent expression Easy when allowed
Goin' nowhere
Verse 4 (like Verse 2)
The steps made a pattern I had never seen
I felt like a kid of Six or seventeen
Flowers off in some Empty daydream
Goin' nowhere
Chorus
It's dead and gone
Matter of fact
It may be for the best,
It sets you, frees you
Can't take back
Honestly I guess
Verse 5
The old records Sitting on the floor
The ones I can't Put on any more
He walked over To her like before
Goin' nowhere
Goin' nowhere
Goin' nowhere
