Capo 2ND (W/out Capo)
[D] [(E)]
[A] [(B)]
[E] [(F#)]
[D]All these kinds of places
Ma[A]ke it seem like it's been ages
And [E]tomorrow's sun and buildings scrape the [E]sky.
I [D]love this country dearly
[A]I can feel the latter clearly
[E]But I never thought I'd be alone to try.[E]
[D]Once I was outside Penn station
[A]Selling red and white carnations
[E]We were still alone, my wife and I.[E]
[D]Before we married, saved my money
[A]Brought my dear wife over.
[E]Now I work to bring my family states[E]ide.
[D]Got off the boat, they s[A]tayed a while
[E]Then scattered 'cross the coast.
[D]Once I'll year I'll see th[A]em for a week or so[E] at most.
D A E E x2
I took a walk
(take a walk, take a walk, take a walk)
(take a walk, take a walk, take a walk)
Ohh-ohh-ohh-ohh
D A E E x2
I took a walk
(take a walk, take a walk, take a walk)
(take a walk, take a walk, take a walk)
Ohh-ohh-ohh-ohh-ohh-ohh-ohh
[D]Practice isn't perfect
bu[A]t the market cuts a loss.
I re[E]mind myself that times could be much worse.[E]
My [D]wife won't ask me questions-
th[A]ere's not so much to ask.
And s[E]he'll never flaunt around an em[E]pty purse.
[D]What's my mother lacking
Ju[A]st to stay a couple nights
[E]And decided she would stay the rest of her [E]life.
[D]And watch my little children
[A]Play some boardgame in the kitchen
[E]And I sit and pray they never feel my stri[E]fe.
But [D]then my partner called[A] to say the pension fund[E]s were gone
He [D]made some bad investm[A]ents, now the accounts ar[E]e overdrawn
D A E E x2
I took a walk.

Ohh-ohh-ohh-ohh-ohh-ohh-ohh
[D]Honey, it's your son,[A] I think I bo[E]rrowed just too much.
We had [D]taxes, we had bills, we had [A]a lifestyle to front.[E]
And [D]tonight I swear I'll come hom[A]e and we'll make love like[E] we're young.
But to[D]morrow, you'll cook dinner f[A]or the neighbors and t[E]heir kids.
We can [D]rip apart the socialists and[A] all their damn taxes[E].
You'll se[D]e I am no crimina[A]l, I'm down on bo[E]th bad knees.
[D]I'm just too much a coward[A] to admit when I[E]'m in need.
