Walking In The Wind chords
Traffic (Jim Capaldi, Steve Winwood)
G+G 2x *
D MajorD
You walk and talk and move around in circles
G+G)
Your friends telling you you are doing fine
G+G
You can't see that snowball as it hurtles
G+G)
Through the shattered membranes of your mind
G+G
If I could talk to you for just one minute
G+G)
Then you would know what it is I am getting at
G+G
But there again your head's got nothing in it
G+G)
By the way you left without your hat
A augmentedA
I'm walking in the wind looking at the sky
D MajorD
Hanging on a breeze and wondering why, why
G+G 2x
D MajorD
Your old man's headed for the final pay-off
G+G)
The joker that you got is fading too
D MajorD
And all the sharks that come around for the rip-off
G+G)
Are gonna tear the flesh right off you
D MajorD
The plastic princess hangs her head in wonder
D MajorD
at the silver glittered boys
G+G
Trying, trying to compete
D MajorD
And all at once the room begins to thunder
G+G)
And all that's left is the stain on the sheet
A augmentedA
I'm walking in the wind looking at the sky
D MajorD
Hanging on a breeze and wondering why, why
G+G 2x
D MajorD
The prostitute is standing on the corner
G+G)
Suffering so much pain to stay alive
D MajorD
She's so real, that life itself bows down before her
G+G)
She couldn't make that nine to five
D MajorD
While the president is crying, crying in the White House
G+G)
The prime minister's really got the blues
D MajorD
All the heads of state are busy playing cat & mouse
G+G)
'Cause you can see none of them have ever paid their dues
A augmentedA
I'm walking in the wind looking at the sky
D MajorD
Hanging on a breeze and wondering why, why
G+G
God knows why, why, why
G+G . . . .
