E 
I was walking 
Emaj7 
With my feet 
A 
A disposition 
Am 
Fell over me 
 
E 
The armory wall was bleeding 
B 
The restless child was reading 
 
E  A  E  A Am  
 
E 
I was swimming 
Emaj7 
Could hardly stand 
A 
The swimming hour 
Am 
was at hand 
E 
The fishes they were feeding 
B 
The lambs they were bleating 
 
E A  E  A Am  
 
A 
ooooooo I walk slowly 
E 
ooooooo I walk slowly 
B 
I walk slowly 
A         Am 
When I walk away 
E       A    Am    E    B 
from you 
 
Whistle solo 
E  Emaj7  A  Am 
E   B         A  Am 
 
E 
I'm feeling bad 
Emaj7 
I'm looking bad 
A                       Am 
I feel and look so bad 
E 
Some might say 
B 
Yours truly 
A                 Am 
is soaking his head 
 
E 
There's apprehension 
Emaj7 
And inhibition 
A 
All contributions 
Am 
To my attrition 
E 
And it happened long ago 
B 
These things these things 
A 
That make me walk so darn 
Am 
slow 
E 
slow
