Walking Song

Intro: G verse 1 D7 G Wouldn’t it be nice to walk together C D7 Baring our souls while wearing out the leather G C G We could talk shop, harmonize a song C G D7 G Wouldn’t it be nice to walk along verse 2 D7 G I’ll show you houses of architectural renown C D7 Some are still standing, some have fallen down G C G Farm houses buried under Canada’s snow C G D7 G Spanish villas on the Boulevards of Mexico verse 3 D7 G And I’ll learn to tell the ash from the oak C D7 And if you don’t know, I won’t make no joke G C G We’ll climb to the top to view the world from above C G D7 G Or carve our initials in the trunk, like teenagers in love verse 4 D7 G And when we get hungry, we’ll stop to eat C D7 Gotta think of our stomachs and rest our feet G C G And if we get thirsty, we’ll have a drink or two C G D7 G In a mountain top bar with a mountain top view Instrumental G D7 G C D7 G C G C G D7 G Verse 5 D7 G And when we get tired, we’ll stop to rest C D7 And if you still want to talk, you can bare your breast G C G If it’s Winter and cold, we’ll take a rooming-house room C G D7 G If it’s Summer and warm, we’ll sleep under the moon Verse 6 D7 G And we’ll talk about the sports we played C D7 ‘Bout the time you got busted, or the times I got laid G C G We’ll talk blood and how we were bred C G D7 G Talk about the folks, both living and dead Verse 7 D7 G This song, like this walk, I find hard to end C D7 Be my lover or be my friend G C G In sneakers or boots or regulation shoes C G D7 G Walking beside you, I’ll never get the walking blues
