Take a Walk by Passion Pit
Tabbed by: Wtflolbbq
Tuning:Standard
Notes:
- I realize these aren't exactly the right names for the chords.
They are named this way to be read more easily.
- The chords are written in the order in which the appear in the song.
- Most of the song has the same chords. In order to not sound too
repetitive, add some different strum styles. However, I'm not
going to tell you how to cover this song. Experiment!

Make it seem like it’s been ages

Tomorrow’s sun will buildings scrape the sky?

I can feel the latter clearly

Once I was outside Penn station

Selling red and white carnations

Practice isn’t perfect
E
But the markets cut a loss
Ab F#5
I remind myself that times could be much worse
C#m5
My wife won’t ask me questions
E
It was not so much to ask
Ab F#5
And she’ll never flaunt around an empty purse

What's my mother lacking

Just to stay a couple nights
Ab F#5
And decided she will stay the rest of her life

I watch my little children, play some board game in the kitchen

And I sit and pray they never feel my strife.
