Taking a Walk

G  Bm  C  D  (2X) 

G                 Bm     C   
A man came to our house 
    D                  G    Bm   C  D 
I believe it was yesterday 
             G           Bm  C   
I would have invited him in 
      D                    G    Bm  C  D 
But I didn't have a lot to say 

    B7                  Em7  
His anticipation, of me opening the door 
   B7                             Em7   
Outweighed my apprehension, as it never had before 
    B7                            Em7 
And drove my concentration, right through that hardwood floor 
  C        D  D/C  Em7  D/A    D  D/C  Em7  D/A 
Ooo-ooh  a-ha 

             G     Bm   C   D 
I'm taking a walk 
             G    Bm   C   D 
I'm going outside 
             G     Bm   C   D 
I'm taking a walk 
                 G    Bm   C   D   D   Dsus4  D  
I'm just getting by 

G                     Bm           C 
There's a girl in the white house 
  D                   G     Bm  C  D 
I don't even know her name 
               G           Bm  C 
Her disheveled appearance 
D                 G       Bm   C  D    
Speaks volumes of shame 

    B7                                     Em7  
It's an embarrassing situation, but a situation just the same 
    B7                           Em7  
The way she walks on others, and never takes the blame 
  B7                      Em7 
Upsets my constitution, beyond its moral frame 
  C        D  D/C  Em7  D/A    D  D/C  Em7  D/A 
Ooo-ooh  a-ha 

             G     Bm   C   D 
I'm taking a walk 
             G     Bm   C   D 
I'm going outside 
                 G     Bm   C   D 
I'm watching the birds 
                 G     Bm   C   D   D   Dsus4  D  
I'm just getting by 

G                   Bm           C 
Found a card in the pocket 
      D            G     Bm  C  D 
Of my worn out overalls 
                     G           Bm  C 
From a girl in Cedar Rapids 
D                     G       Bm   C  D    
Now residing in Idaho Falls 

    B7                                     Em7  
I wish you could have been there, when she opened up the door 
    B7                              Em7  
And looked me in the face, like she never did before 
  B7                          Em7  
I felt about as welcome, as a Wal-Mart Superstore 
  C        D  D/C  Em7  D/A    D  D/C  Em7  D/A 
Ooo-ooh  a-ha 

             G     Bm   C   D 
I'm taking a walk 
          G     Bm   C   D 
I'm going outside 
             G     Bm   C   D 
I'm taking a walk 
               G     Bm   C   D 
I don't need a ride 

                 G     Bm   C   D 
I'm watching the birds 
          G     Bm   C   D 
Flying so high 
                 G     Bm   C   D 
I’m just getting by 
                 G     Bm   C   D  
I’m just getting by 
D  Dsus4  D  D/C  Em7  D/A  G
