Beatles, The - Nowhere Man Lyrics
He's a real nowhere man
Sitting in his nowhere land
Making all his nowhere plans for nobody
Doesn't have a point of view
Isn't he a bit like you and me?
Nowhere Man, please listen
You don't know what you're missing
Nowhere Man, the world is at your command
He's as blind as he can be
Just sees what he wants to see
Nowhere Man can you see me at all?
Take your time, don't hurry
Leave it all till somebody else lends you a hand
Doesn't have a point of view
Knows not where he's going to
Isn't he a bit like you and me?
Nowhere Man, please listen
You don't know what you're missing
Nowhere Man, the world is at your command
He's a real Nowhere Man
Sitting in his nowhere land
Making all his nowhere plans for nobody
Making all his nowhere plans for nobody
Making all his nowhere plans for nobody

Beatles, The Nowhere Man Comments
This song could be about bipolar disorder. Describes many key aspects of what often makes this feel just like a life sentence to a tee.
gretas thurgban get better writers
Don't worry, I'm legit.
The Bass in this song is some of Pauls best
Paul looking straight up like JonTron on the cover
There is irrefutable proof john lennon beat every one his wives
This reminds me of the movie, “taxi driver”
"god's lonely man". I hear what you mean, 2:212...
Jesus Fucking Christ...............
This song was depicted well in 'Yellow Submarine'.
As a person struggling to find himself, this is the perfect song for me.
Gosh, I really do not like the Beatles. Don't Worry.
En cada una de mis vidas escuchare a the beatles .
Ins'nt he a bit like you and me.................
Эти ребята великие !
This Rubber Souls album cover is very, very creepy and has a " The Munsters meet The Espinozas ', kind of feel to it, with a side kick aura of 'The soul collector" blended in. As a kid, I never picked up on it, but as an adult, I could feel the eyes in this picture following my every move, looking down on me from the wall on which I framed it as art. A poltergeist hit my house, thus engulfing the entire dwelling, just a few short months after hanging it on the wall. Humans are crap!
I am here because cowboy bebop
Know's not where he's going to...........
Nowhere man - False Paul....
This was McCartney's best Bass performances with the Beatles (I did like his work on Silly Love Songs). This was a great song
It's only a song folks. You don't really live your life by the indeterminate lyrics of songs written by young guys who took drugs, do you? If you do, there's a cult leader looking for folks just like you.
my sister called me a nowhere man im not sure if i should be complimented or insulted
Am I the only one that likes John Lennon’s acoustic rhythm guitar? Just a couple of basic chords and he can make a masterpiece.

Just a bit.
I can just see this song playing at the end of a movie when the main character commits suicide
alot of the beatles songs bring me out in goose bumps..........i wasnt even born and yet they do that to me like a song does that reminds you of a time and a place........jaw dropping genius
love the beetles
One of Lennon's best songs.
Love backing vocals
i've always wondered why the photoshots of ringo makes him look sooooo short compared to the other guys, it's not fair.
Mike Walsh He was and still is quite a bit shorter... Also how's it not fair?
Die beste Gruppe die es jemals gab und gibt!Beatles forever!
The Beatles were quite the improbable phenomenon you know.
The odds were 1 in 10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000.
Um, well, give or take. 😁
Irgendjemand wegen Monte hier?
That guitar just makes it fab
Not all great songs gotta be fast-paced, like this beautiful song... "Nowhere Man".
This isn't particularly slow
The Beatles defined the 60s. It's only fitting that they broke up as the 70s started.
I agree with the first part but I have no response to the second part
John be like I’m the leader bishes
i love how in yellow submarine they just find this sad lonely dude and then theyre like "oi look at this daft twat, yeah ha, you know what 'e is?" and then they break out into song until the guy crys
Those three part harmonies always get me
Underrated
The world is at your command ......
MAN OF NO SIDE, MAN OF NO SPACE, MAN OF NO UNIVERSE, MAN OF NO TIME, AND ¡ MAN OF NO LIFE !
I relate to this song on a personal level. I was addicted (and still am) to heroin at a young age (was from ages 15-20), and have spent the time since recovering and doing absolutely nothing, now I’m 26, and although I’ve been clean for 6 years, I live with my parents, have zero friends, am severely depressed, and don’t have any sense of direction or purpose in life. I truly feel like a nowhere man, as in I’ll go nowhere in life, and be a nobody forever. But who knows, maybe one day I’ll make it, but don’t hold your breath.
All good, you will get there. Aw, what the hey do I know? So, do you think you will get there? You have prime years ahead of you and by your post, I think you have the drive and I think that you have those little inklings to do it. Let's Go!!!
Way Word let’s go!
Very beatifuly music of the Beatles my friends
I was fifteen when Rubber Soul came out in December '65. I was playing guitar in a band, having received a guitar the Christmas before when the first Beatle album came out. When I heard the guitar solo on Nowhere Man, I couldn't understand why I couldn't get the same tone. Unlike today, we weren't able to see how they recorded and their tricks for getting a sound. Years later, I found out John and George had played Fender Stratocasters in unison to get that fat tonality.
Wow, you the Man, tell me more!!! I enjoy your writing - tell me more!!! Yeah, a little much, but I'm old too and no time to waste. What's the tricks? Can't wait. Cheers, John-Faced Dryman. 👍✌

That feeling of sitting at your desk at work, wondering where it’s all headed and if you’ll ever have the chance to do what you really want...
Is'nt he a bit like you and me ?
Great songs made back then. I love the beatles
who in 2019?
Real life 💯💪💯💯💯💯 💯💯💪
whoever where the people who disliked this song were nowhere people who don't have a life
This is best song Of Beatles
A real good song <3.
Wonderful Song.
You know, when I was younger, I just kind of thought the imagery in this song was weird, and I didn't really get what it was about. Now I truly understand the meaning of this song.
For me, some of Ringo's best drumming is on this cut.
The bassline is genius.
Best thing about this is Paul's harmony at the end
John had Nowhere Man
Paul had Fool on the Hill
lalalalaaaaa........nowhere man.......
sound like NPC to me
One of the great lyrical songs of all time!! But the Beatles have many of those types of tunes!! Love this song on so many levels.
Magnificent Masterpiece
Incredible ....................
Blown away by how the production and the Beatles and wasted sound awesome
Nobody writes songs like this anymore..... Beautiful ❤️❤️
Listen to the universe it provides
awesome
Am I the only one in love with the drums before and during the nowhere man-Lala part ?
こんにちは😃この歌もとても大好きな歌です🎵🎶🎵このアルバム自体が、大好きですUp loud ありがとうございます😊🍀🍀🍀🍀❣️
Bob Dylan's favourite Beatles song.
I believe many, if not all of us can relate to this song at one point or another during the course of life. I for one certainly do. I've been so caught up in my own head and fears lately, feeling like I have to please everyone or no one so seclusion (maybe even delusion) is what I've resorted to as of late. But the Beatles' music, even after all these years still resonates. I want to explore so much and yet the fear of failure has kept me back. For anyone who may happen to stumble across this comment, don't wait - go and do. Even if you feel like a nobody caught in nowhere, start where you are and you'll find where you want to be. It's time I do the same.
Peace and love
I fall into that category..!!
Twin Strats. Rocky.
Nowhere Man describes Donald Trump!
sometimes some people's views and ideas are not really accepted by the majority of society. maybe that's what this song could be about too
I ALWAYS play The Beatles as loud as i can without hurting my ears. I have to hear every nuance of each song.
Musical eargasm!
He's as blind as he can be !!
the harmonies are incredible...along with Georges' guitar hook.
"He is a real "doberman""...
My junior high day, still listening
Is'nt he a bit like you and me??
Hit like if you are sick of the stupid adds on YouTube
Bob Dylan's favorite Beatle's song
Great song when you're going through an existential crisis.
Any song by the
Beatles just fills
my heart with Joy

"Nowhere man" is basically John Writing about himself, he's in his twenties, he's probably the biggest rock star on earth and he can barely comprehend what is happening.
- His marriage is falling apart.
- He barely knows his own son
- He goes to all of these amazing countries on tour but cannot leave his own hotel room because he'd be mobbed.
- He comes up with these GREAT songs but performing them live is basically impossible and with big PA systems being a thing of the future, the screaming girls in the audience would have drowned out the music anyway.
- Hamburg buddy (and future Plastic Ono band Bass player) Klaus Voorman said that he met up with John on the set of "Strawberry fields forever" and that the latter just burst into tears telling him how unhappy he was with all of it.
"Nowhere man" basically is telling the listener "Here's a man completely lost, so please be sympathetic, after all, don't we all have moments in our lives where we are lost too?" But it also is hopeful: "Nowhere man, don't worry, take your time, don't hurry, leave it all til somebody else lends you a hand." things will get better eventually.
@Daniel DiCenso It did. He couldn't do without her. He tried secretary May Pang, but he just fell apart without Yoko. I thought she was strange, but apparently she was right down his alley.
@justin dykes Elvis was an entertainer he didnt have half of Lennons talent.
@Anthony Mc Cusker as in how? ELvis is a whole lot better singer. Lennon is a better songwriter...how does he being a better song writer while Elvis arguably being the greatest singer ever mean he is more talented?
True....Being John Lennon in 1965 sounds great ...It must have actually been quite nightmarish...Hateful as it is, Albert Goldman's biography describes that period in John's life ("Fat Elvis" period), quite well...
Actually Nowhere man is about John Lennon when he was chilling on his massive bed. He wrote the song because he's lonely on this huge bed made for two. Because he's a nowhere man and that's his land.
Best vocal intro ever
Agree🙌
美しいハーモニー
And leveling man sais , deep breath
Know's not where he's going too...........
John Lennon was saying this song came about from him racking his brain trying to come up with one more song for Rubber Soul. He fell asleep and this just popped into his head
What if were all nowhere man, living in a nowhere land? None of this really matters, does it? All nowhere man can be somewhere doing something.
Underrated Song!
0:48 I love that guitar solo
