[N]
[C] [F]
[A]
[D#] [Fm]
Welcome [D#] back.
[A#m]
Here's a song [G] about the [B] coming of winter and the [F#] fall of the year.
[E] [G]
[C#] [F#]
[B] [F#]
[B] [F#]
[B] [F#] Moving in [A#m] silent [B] desperation
[C#] Deep in an eye on the [F#] water and
A hypothetical [A#m] [B] destination
[C#] Who is this walking [F#] man?
[A]
Well, [E] leaves have come returning
[B] And the [E] goose has gone [B] to flying
[C#m] Bridges [F#] are burning
[C#m] So don't you let [F#] that yearning pass [F#m] you by
[C#m]
It's the [E] walking man
The walking man walks
[B]
[C#m] Any other [F#] man stops and [Bm] talks
[A]
[E] The walking man walks
[B]
Now the frost [E] is on the pumpkin
[B]
[E] And the hay is in the barn
And you know [C#m] that happy's come [F#] and rambling on
[C#m] Stumbling [F#] around drunk down on [E] the farm
The walking man walks on by
Doesn't know [B] nothing about nothing
[C#m]
Any other [F#] man stops and [Bm] talks
[E] The walking man walks on by
Walk on [C#m] by
[G#m]
[A] [G#m] Most [F#m] everybody got [E] seeds of stone
[A] It ain't always [G#m] easy for wheat to grow
You [F#] don't know the [A] road
No [E] one, for sure one's [B] always missing
And [G#m] something is never [E] quite right
[C#m] But who would [F#] want to listen to
[C#m] Kissing his [F#] existence [E] goodnight
It's the walking man, walking [A] man
[E] Walk on by, my love
[C#m] Any other [F#] man stops and talks
[A]
Not [C#m] the walking
[F#] man
[A]
No, not the [E] walking [F#] man
[B]
Walk on by [C#m] me, walking man
[F#m] [Bm]
Walking man walks [C#m] on by
[F#] [B]
Walking [G#m] man walks [C#m] on by
[F#] [Bm]
Walk [G#m] on, [C#m] walking man
[F#m]
