Joshua Radin is an acoustic singer/songwriter from Cleveland, Ohio. When close friend and actor/film-maker Zach Braff heard a demo of Radin's song "Winter," he was immediately interested, and got the song onto the show Scrubs in the episode "My Screw Up." The song received an overwhelmingly positive response and gave Radin substantial exposure with the show's demographic. The songs "Today", "Closer", "Don't Look Away" and "These Photographs" were also used on the show.

Song: Nowhere To Go* Artist: Joshua Radin Tuning: Standard, capo 4 Questions/Comments: [email protected]
*This tab, and the lyrics as well, are based off of his live demo version, which is likely to change slightly when he releases a studio version of this song. But given that Ive heard this song live, and seen other corroborating videos of it, the basic structure is likely to stay the same.
Now, there are no available lyrics for this song on the web at this point, other than ones I myself have submitted, so these probably arent 100% correct. But the chords are, and its a brilliant song.
