D
Boy put that guitar down
Bm                                   G
It’ll take you from town to town and drop you off
A                 D       A G A
In the middle of nowhere
D
My daddy sure was right
Bm                         G
Every time I close my eyes I wake up
A                 D       A
In the middle of nowhere

[Chorus]
D              A
Who’da thought heaven
G                         A
Would be in the middle of nowhere
D                    A                G
And who’da thought a six string and a song
            A
would be my ticket there
G             A                   G
I’ll stay for free, I’ll play for you
              A                G
I’ll play for me, this ain’t a job
         A           Bm
It’s the answer to a prayer
            G       A                D        A G A
And I found heaven, in the middle of nowhere

[Verse]
D
I once opened up for Garth
Bm                                     G
Back when he still played the bars and county fairs
A                D        A G A
In the middle of nowhere
D
I’ve got a home that I remember
Bm                                G
I try to go back each December if I ain’t stuck
A                D        A
In the middle of nowhere

[Chorus]
D              A
Who’da thought heaven
      G                   A
Would be in the middle of nowhere
D                    A                G
And who’da thought a six string and a song
            A
would be my ticket there
G             A                   G
I’ll stay for free, I’ll play for you
              A                G
I’ll play for me, this ain’t a job
         A           Bm
It’s the answer to a prayer
            G       A                D        A G A
And I found heaven, in the middle of nowhere

[Bridge]
G        A           D        A      Bm
And if I never see a light behind my name
G           A                       C                 A
I’ll hit my knees each night and be thankful just the same

[Chorus]
D                  A
Cuz who’da thought heaven
      G                   A
Would be in the middle of nowhere
D                    A                G
And who’da thought a six string and a song
            A
would be my ticket there
G             A                   G
I’ll stay for free, I’ll play for you
              A                G
I’ll play for me, this ain’t a job
         A           Bm
It’s the answer to a prayer
            G       A                D        A G A D
And I found heaven, in the middle of nowhere
