# Add in a couple of strums between the picky bit
# and the next chord.
#The chords then follow on in the verse like this
C
We all face the same way
Am
Still it takes all day
F
Take a look to my left
C
Pick out the worst and the best
C
She paints her lip
Am
All greasy and thick
F
Another mirror stare
Dm
Now she's going where?
C
Another office affair
Am
To kill an unborn scare
F
Talk dirty to a priest
C
It makes you human at least
C
But is she running away?
Am
To start a brand new day?
F
Or is she going home?
Dm C
Why's she driving alone?
#Chorus
F Dm C
Is anyone going anywhere?
F Dm C
Everyone gotta be somewhere
C
She got a body in the boot
Am
Or just bags full of food?
F
Those are models legs
C
But are they womens, are they mens?
C
She shouts down the phone
Am
Missed a payment on the loan
F
She gotta be above the rest
Dm
Keeping up with the best
#Chorus
F Dm C
Is anyone going anywhere?
F Dm C
Everyone gotta be somewhere

C
Waits tables for a crook
Am
Who wrote a hardback book
F
To teach kids how to read
C
Or sell your body on the streets
C
A nurse without a job
Am
Another uptown snob
F
But have I got you all wrong
Dm
One look and you were gone
#Chorus
F Dm C
Is anyone going anywhere?
F Dm C
Everyone gotta be somewhere
