Walk of Life chords
Dire Straits

E A  B A  B 4x *

E
Here comes Johnny singing oldies, goldies

"Be-Bop-A-Lua, Baby What I Say"

Here comes Johnny singing "I Gotta Woman"

down in the tunnels, trying to make it pay
A
He got the action, he got the motion;
E
Oh yeah, the boy can play
A
Dedication, devotion;
E
turning all the night time into the day
                                      B
He do the song about the sweet lovin' woman
          E              A
He do the song about the knife
          E   B                   A
He do the walk, he do the walk of life
B                       E
Yeah, he do the walk of life

E A woo ho B A  B

E
Here comes Johnny and he'll tell you the story;

hand me down mu walkin' shoes

Here come Johnny with the power and the glory;

backbeat the talkin' blues
A
He got the action, he got the motion;
E
Oh yeah, the boy can play
A
Dedication, devotion;
E
turning all the night time into the day
E                                     B
He do the song about the sweet lovin' woman
          E              A
He do the song about the knife
          E   B                   A
He do the walk, he do the walk of life
B                       E
Yeah, he do the walk of life

E A woo ho B A  B

E
Here comes Johnny singing oldies, goldies

"Be-Bop-A-Lua, Baby What I Say"

Here comes Johnny singing "I Gotta Woman"

down in the tunnels, trying to make it pay
A
He got the action, he got the motion;
E
Oh yeah, the boy can play
A
Dedication, devotion;
E
turning all the night time into the day

    E                          A
And after all the violence and double talk
               E                           A
There's just a song in the trouble and the strife
           E     B                       A
You do the walk, yeh, you do the walk of life;
B                  E
you do the walk of life


E A woo ho B A  B
