Verse -
E5                                C5
Everybody's Got Themselves A Plan
G5                                  D5
Everybody thinks theyll be the man,
D5
including the girls.
E5                                              C5
The musicians who lack the friends to form a band,
C5
are singer songwriters.
G5                               D5
The rest of us are dj's, or offical club photographers.
E5                                          C5
And tonight im playing another nambucca show,
G5                                         D5
so im going though my phonebook texting everyone i know
             E5                                      C5
and quite a few i dont know who numbers found their way into my phone
           G5
but they might come along anyway
 D5
you never really know.


Bridge-


G5                      D5           E5
None of this is going anywhere
    C5                      D5
Pretty soon we'll all be old
G5                      D5                  E5
and no one left alive will really care
    C5
about our glory days, when we sold our souls.


Chorus

D5
But if your all about the destination,
E5                        C5
then take a fucking flight.
D5
We're going nowhere slowly
E5                         D5
but we're seeing all the sights
         C5          G5           D5 *
and we're definitely going to hell.
            G5               D5              C5
But we'll have all the best stories to tell.


Ending
     C5          G5          D5
Yes Im Definatly Going to Hell,
              G5            D5             G5
but I'll have all the best stories to tell.
