 This song sounds way better if you can finger pick it...if not, strumming is fine.
Like  an empty bottle washed up  by the waves
Like  an ol' schooner slippin' slowly  to its grave
Like  ghosts of old sailors caught  somewhere in time
Like  a lone palm that's watched  the world unwind, I got
Nowhere  to go  and nowhere  to be
Trinidad Charlie  on a stool  next to me
Readin'  his book  about the  have and have-nots
In  between chapters, we'd take  another shot
One  by one, we'd slide  from reality
Nowhere  to go,  and nowhere to be.
There's  jerk chicken, grillin'  on the grill
It  sure feels good for some time  to be still
Even  if it's only for  a little while
The  sight of those sails in the wind  make me smile, when I got
Nowhere  to go  and nowhere  to be
Trinidad Charlie  on a stool  next to me
Readin  his book  about the have  and have-nots
In  between chapters we'd take  another shot
One  by one we'd slide  from reality
With  nowhere to go  and nowhere to be
Days  turn into night
When  you're stuck  in still  life, and you got
Nowhere  to go  and nowhere  to be
Trinidad Charlie  on a stool  next to me
Readin'  his book  about the have  and have-nots
In  between chapters we'd take  another shot
One  by one we'd slide  from reality
With  nowhere to go  and nowhere to be
 Thats what I could pick up from the song. It sounds good to me.
 Although Im still questionable about the D at the end of the Chorus.
 Let me know if any of you can notice anything different. Enjoy!!
