[Intro]
A  E  B7  E
 
[Verse 1]
         E                     A   
They had meant for me one last time 
          E   
to see my hometown again
      B7                         
Once again go there see the places 
           E
where as a child I've been
                          A          
As I journeyed now it was so far out 
       E
it was almost in
A      E             B7          E
In the middle in the middle of nowhere
 
[Verse 2]
                            A      
Sadness talked with me as I walked 
               E
the streets of my memory
             B7                
Streets that seemed somehow 
                              E
so much smaller now than they used to be
                               A        
Talked of other days when this tiny place 
         E
had been home to me
A      E             B7          E
In the middle in the middle of nowhere

 
[Chorus]
                              
People stared at me in silence 
     A
as I walked around
         E                       
Time had passed till I was just 
           B7
a stranger there
          E                    E7  
Folks had changed so much that no one 
     A
even knew me now
       E             B7          E
In the middle in the middle of nowhere
 
[Verse 3]
                         A        
I went once again to the schoolyard 
        E
where I used to play
           B7                    
Passed the church of mom and daddy 
           E
where they used to pray
                           A          
Down the dusty road to the churchyard 
           E
where they both now lay
A      E             B7          E
In the middle in the middle of nowhere
 
[Chorus]
                                  
As I placed my blue forget-me-nots 
      A
there on the ground
         E               
One last time I knelt by mom 
           B7
and dad in prayer
       E                            A
Then I said goodbye forever to that little town
       E             B7          A     E
In the middle in the middle of nowhere
