John Hiatt – Walk On (Guitar Solo)

G
Someone called out to you

C              D              Em
And it sounded just like crying

G
On a street where nobody

C              D    Em
Even knows your name

G                                 C
Your mind was getting high on the sweet air

D                   Em
And your spirit was flying

C            D
Steam rising from the sidewalks of New Orleans

Em
after an evening rain

C             D
Steam rising from the sidewalks

Em                      D
After an evening rain

G                     C
And it only made the heat

                 D            Em
Feel like it was walking even closer

G                C
As you headed up St. Charles

D                   Em
To catch a streetcar named Desire

G             C
Young couple in the doorway

D                    Em
Like he was trying to force her

C                  D
In the distance you swore

Em
You could hear them open fire

C                  D
Tires squealing in the distance

Em
And you heard them open fire

C        D    G   D
Walk on, walk on

C
Don't look back

G
Don't ask questions

G                 D
Don't you try to understand

C        D    G   D
Walk on, walk on

D             C
Straight back down to your hotel room

G         D                G
Where she lies waiting for her man

G                     C
You're so afraid you might be losing love

D                 Em
That it makes you worry

G                            C
And you wonder if she's ever seen this kind of

D          Em
fear in you

G
And you think of that young couple

C                 D
struggling in the doorway

Em
And it makes you hurry

C                       D
You wonder what kind of fears

                 Em
They might be struggling through

C               D
Most of all you wonder if

                 Em
they saw that fear in you

C        D    G   D
Walk on, walk on

C
Don't look back

         G
Don't ask questions

G                    D
Don't you try to understand

C        D    G   D
Walk on, walk on

D             C                   G
Straight back down to your hotel room

G              D                G
Where she lies waiting for her man

D             C                   G
Straight back down to your hotel room

G              D                C
Where she lies waiting for her man

C      D   Em
Walk on…

C      D   Em
Walk on…

C      D   Em
Walk on..
