Title: WALK
Artist: BLIND MELON
Transcribed by: ANDREW CROSS email corrections comments to: BIGMUFFED@AOL.COM
THIS IS JUST ONE EXAMPLE OF BLIND MELONS AMAZING SONGWRITING.
SIMPLE CHORDS AND GREAT LYRICS
THIS SONG IS QUITE SIMPLE TO PLAY ONCE YOU GET THE RHYTHM OF THE STRUMMING.

THE RHYTHM HALTS AT VARIOUS PLACES WHILE LETTING RING ON G CHORD BEFORE GETTING BACK TO THE MAIN RHYTHM.
WHEN THINGS BEHIND THE SMILE AIN’T OK…..

ALSO YOU WILL HEAR IT SLOWS DOWN TO HALF THE SPEED SO YOU STRUM APPROX TWICE AS LONG FOR EACH CHORD AS ‘MY FEET ARE SO COLD, I CAN’T BELIEVE THAT I HAVE TO …..’

LYRICS
I FIND MYSELF SINGIN THE SAME SONGS EVERYDAY
THE ONES THAT MAKE ME FEEL GOOD
WHEN THINGS BEHIND THE SMILE AIN’T OK
AROUND AND OVER AND INBETWEEN THE SEAS
I NEED TO BE ON TOP OF A MOUNTAIN
WHERE I CAN SEE EVERYTHING
BECAUSE THIS PARANOIAS GETTING’ OLD
OOH YEAH IT’S GETTING SO OLD
AS I OPEN MY EYES TO START ANOTHER DAY
I’M IN A PILE OF PUKE (WITH A) EMPTY BAG OF EXCUSES
BUT MY LOVE FOR FRIENDS AND FAMILY
YOU KNOW I NEED THEM
BUT UNDER A SUN THAT’S SEEN IT ALL BEFORE
MY FEET ARE SO COLD
AND I CANT BELIEVE THAT I HAVE TO
BANG MY HEAD AGAINST THIS WALL AGAIN
BUT THE BLOWS THEY HAVE JUST A LITTLE MORE
SPACE INBETWEEN THEM
GONNA TALE A BREATH AND
TRY, TRY AGAIN
I’M GONNA TRY AGAIN
PARANOIAS GETTING’ OLD
