Landlocked Blues Ukulele chords by Bright Eyes

Verse:
   C              G7         C
If you walk away, I'll walk away
      C             G7            C
First tell me which road you will take
  Am            G              C             Am
I don't want to risk our paths crossing some day
   C                  G7              C
So you walk that way, I'll walk this way

        C               G7       C
And the future it hangs over our heads
       C               G7       C
And it moves with each current event
        Am         G            C           Am
Till it falls all around like a cold steady rain
     C                 G7           C
Just stay in when it's looking this way

        C                   G7         C
And the moon's she's laying low in the sky
             C          G7       C
It's forcing everything metal to shine
        Am             G                 C             Am
And the sidewalk holds diamonds like the jewelry store case
           C                  G7           C
They argue walk this way, no, walk this way

    C             G7          C
And Laura's she's asleep in my bed
       C           G7           C
As I'm leaving she wakes up and says
   Am               G       C             C          Am
"I dreamed you were carried (away) on the crest of a wave
     C              G7           C
Baby don't go away, please, come here"

            C            G7          C
And there's kids playing guns in our street
          C            G7             C
One keeps pointing his tree branch at me
     Am           G         C         Am
So I put my hands up I say "enough is enough,
        C              G7             C
Man, If you walk away, I'll walk away"
(And that little f**ker shot me dead)

Chorus:
C7

Am        G      C
I found a liquid cure
Am     G          C
For my landlocked blues
        F     G        C       Am
It will pass away in a slow parade
     C              G              C
It's leaving I just dont know how soon

Bridge:
C G C C   C G C C   Am G C Am   C G C C

        C              G7     C
And the world's got me dizzy again
                C          G7         C
You think after growin' so old I'd be used to the spin
       Am         G              C            Am
But it only feels worse when I'm stuck in one place
               C                G7       C
So I just keep pacin' around or driving away

              C            G7          C
And I've been drinking the ink from my pen
               C        G7            C
And I've been balancing history books up on my head
         Am       G           C        Am
But they all boil down to one quotable phrase
       C               G7          C
If you love something, give it away

       C          G7        C
A good woman will pick you apart
      C          G7                C
A box full of suggestions for your possible heart
        Am       G              C      Am
And you may be offended, I know I was afraid
    C                G7             C
But don't walk away, don't walk away

        C           G7          C
We made love on the living room floor
         C            G7                C
With the noise in the background from a televised war
        Am        G                    C             Am
In that deafening pleasure I thought I heard someone say
    C                      G7                C
"If we walk away, I'll bet they'll walk away"

            C          G7         C
But you see greed is a bottomless pit
        C           G7                   C
And our freedom's a joke now, We're just taking a p**s
        Am               G             C        Am
And the whole world must watch the sad comic display
          C                G7           C
If you're still free start running away
(Cause we're coming for ya')

Bridge:
C G C C   C G C C   Am G C Am   C G C C

            C        G7           C
I've get so tired of holding this pose
       C           G7             C
I feel more like a stranger every time I get home
       Am       G             C         Am
So I'm making a deal with the devils of fame
        C                  G7                C
Saying "Show me the money, show me the money"

          C          G7            C
You'll be free honey once you have died
         C           G7           C
From the shackles of language and measurable time
         Am           G            C       Am
And then we can trade places, play musical graves
          C          G7         C
Till then walk away, walk away, walk away

Chorus:
C7

Am     G     C
So I'm up at dawn
Am      G     C
Putting on my shoes
F      G           C       Am
I just got to make a clean escape
    C             G                C
I'm leaving but I don't know where to
           Am            G                C
I know I'm leaving but I don't know where to
