E (F#)
D
All these kinds of places
A
Make it seem like it's been ages
E E
And tomorrow's sun and buildings scrape the sky.
D
I love this country dearly
A
I can feel the latter clearly
E E
But I never thought I'd be alone to try.
D
Once I was outside Penn station
A
Selling red and white carnations
E E
We were still alone, my wife and I.
D
Before we married, saved my money
A
Brought my dear wife over.
E E
Now I work to bring my family stateside.
D A
Got off the boat, they stayed a while
E
Then scattered 'cross the coast.
D A E
Once I'll year I'll see them for a week or so 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
A
but the market cuts a loss.
E E
I remind myself that times could be much worse.

D
My wife won't ask me questions-
A
there's not so much to ask.
E E
And she'll never flaunt around an empty purse.
D
What's my mother lacking
A
Just to stay a couple nights
E E
And decided she would stay the rest of her life.
D
And watch my little children
A
Play some boardgame in the kitchen
E E
And I sit and pray they never feel my strife.
D A E
But then my partner called to say the pension funds were gone
D A E
He made some bad investments, now the accounts are overdrawn
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 A E
Honey, it's your son, I think I borrowed just too much.
D A E
We had taxes, we had bills, we had a lifestyle to front.
D A E
And tonight I swear I'll come home and we'll make love like we're young.
D A E
But tomorrow, you'll cook dinner for the neighbors and their kids.
D A E
We can rip apart the socialists and all their damn taxes.
D A E
You'll see I am no criminal, I'm down on both bad knees.
D A E
I'm just too much a coward to admit when I'm in need.
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 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
