On my first day in Nashville didn't seem like much of one
Drinkin' 'til I had fallen asleep out in the sun
I was workin' on a song that I guess I'm still workin' on
It's called, "Where will I go now that I'm gone?"
When that idea first came to me, I was only 22
At 25, I had realized it was all that I could do
To make it to the end, but then again I always knew
If I never got it finished, I could die tryin' to
And then last night I almost had it, right here in my hotel
But it faded out the further asleep that I fell
When I woke up this mornin', I was more than twice my age
And I had left myself this note here on another empty page
"Where will I go now that I'm gone?"
They said, "Maybe you've been chasin' a song too long
Hell, it's turned into a song about a song you're workin' on, man, come on
It's gone, let that sun bitch go"

But you know, givin' up a dream is a lot like makin' a dream come true
It's easy to sit around talkin' about, it's a little harder to just go out and do
And but for this one last question, I would give up on this song
Where will I go now that I'm gone?
