Well we know where we're going
But we don't know where we've been
And we know what we're knowing
But we can't say what we've seen
And we're not little children
And we know what we want
And the future is certain
Give us time to work it out

/ C - / F C / C - / F EbBb / C - / F EbF / C - / F EbBb /

We're on a road to nowhere, come on inside
Taking that ride to nowhere, we'll take that ride
Feeling okay this morning, and you know
We're on a road to paradise, here we go, here we go

/ C - Am - / / F - C G / F C G C /

We're on a ride to nowhere, come on inside
Taking that ride to nowhere, we'll take that ride
Maybe you wonder where you are, I don't care
Here is where time is on our side, take you there
Take you there

We're on a road to nowhere, ha, ha
We're on a road to nowhere, ha, ha
We're on a road to nowhere, ha, ha, whoo

/ C - Am - / / /

There's a city in my mind, come along and take that ride
And it's all right, baby it's all right
And it's very far away but it's growing day by day
And it's all right, baby it's all right

/ C - / Am - / :

Would you like to come along, you can help me sing this song
And it's all right, baby it's all right
We can tell you what to do but they'll make a fool of you
And it's all right, baby it's all right

There's a city in my mind...

Would you like to come along, we can help you sing this song
And it's all right, baby it's all right
They can tell you what to do but they'll make a fool of you
And it's all right, baby it's all right

We're on a road to nowhere, hey
We're on a road to nowhere, haaaa
We're on a road to nowhere, haa-haaaa

We're on a road to nowhere

Young@Heart at Fenway - The Star Spangled Banner

Young@Heart & David Byrne - One Fine Day

Saw the wandrin' eye- inside my heart
Shouts and battle cries- from every part
I can see those tears- every one is true
When the door appears- I'll go right through---oooh

I stand in liquid light- like everyone
I built my life with rhymes- to carry on
And it gives me hope- to see you there
The things I used to know- that one fine

One fine day
One fine day

In a small dark room- where I will wait
Face to face I find- I contemplate
Even though a man- is made of clay
[ David Byrne Lyrics are found on www.songlyrics.com ]
Everything can change- that one fine-

One fine day
One fine day
One fine day

Then before my eyes- is standing still
I beheld it there- a city on a hill
I complete my tasks- one by one
I remove my masks- when I am done

Then a piece of mind- fell over me
In these troubled times- I still can see
We can use the stars

Saw the wandrin' eye- inside my heart
Shouts and battle cries- from every part
I can see those tears- every one is true

Young@Heart & David Byrne - Heaven

Everyone is trying to get to the bar.
The name of the bar, the bar is called Heaven.
The band in Heaven, they play my favorite song.
They play it once again, play it all night long.

Heaven, Heaven is a place
a place where nothing, nothing ever happens.
Heaven, Heaven is a place
a place where nothing, nothing ever happens.

There is a party, everyone is there.
Everyone will leave at exactly the same time.
Its hard to imagine that nothing at all
could be so exciting, could be so much fun.

Heaven, Heaven is a place
a place where nothing, nothing ever happens.
Heaven, Heaven is a place
a place where nothing, nothing ever happens.

When this kiss is over it will start again.
It will not be any different, it will be exactly
the same.
It's hard to imagine that nothing at all
could be so exciting, could be this much fun.

Heaven, Heaven is a place
a place where nothing, nothing ever happens.
Heaven, Heaven is a place
a place where nothing, nothing ever happens.

Young at Heart plays around here from time to time. This is from last October. I wanted to bring my mother but I was stuck at work about 1/2 mile away.

There is a documentary series 'Independent Lens' that shows on Public Broadcasting Service. One of the best was about the Young at Heart Chorus.
http://www.pbs.org/independentlens/young-at-heart/
The video isn't available from PBS now, but here are some clips on Yahoo:

http://video.yahoo.com/watch/6731543
http://video.yahoo.com/watch/6751836/17547055

It's a great film. Probably not released on-line because it still makes $$$ for pledge drives. PBS is sponsored in part by donations from viewers.

The last song of the movie: "I will try to fix you"
