Walnut Street
G*
G*
I've got a little house on Walnut Street
G*
The nights are quite, the morning's sweet.
C majorC D MajorD
Got an old wood floor beneath my feet,
G*
That somebody's grandfather built.
G*
I bet he used to keep his lucky stripes on this windowsill,
C majorC D MajorD
While he planned and worked that wood until
G*
He made silk from the yellow pine.
G*
I've got a paper that says this house is mine,
D MajorD
But it ain't...it belongs to time.
E minorEm D MajorD C majorC G+G D MajorD C majorC
- With morning at the window, sometimes I swear this old room glows
G+G
And somewhere between what you can and cannot see,
D MajorD
That old man is here.
G*
The neighbor lady sings all day long.
G*
She only stops at night to start at dawn.
C majorC D MajorD
I swear she only knows about three songs,
G* G*
But I find myself singing to one of her sad old country tunes.
C majorC D MajorD G*
It reminds me of an afternoon...I was a kid and it was Saturday.
G*
Just me and my dad drivin' out to the lake.
C majorC D MajorD
Now he's just so far away...
E minorEm D MajorD C majorC G+G D MajorD C majorC
- With morning at the window, sometimes I swear this old room glows
G+G
And somewhere between what you can and cannot see,
D MajorD G*
He's right here...
G*
Last night I dreamed that I could fly.
G*
If I held my arms just right, I'd stay treetop high.
C majorC D MajorD
Hell, I may just be a bird sometimes.
G* G*
Hanging right above it all - - a bird with a sad and lonesome call
C majorC D MajorD
And any moment I might fall, for you...again.
E minorEm D MajorD C majorC G+G D MajorD C majorC
- With morning at the window, sometimes I swear this old room glows
G+G
And somewhere between what you can and cannot see,
D MajorD G+G
You're still here.
