Passion Pit – Take A Walk (Ukulele)

E           
All these kinds of places

        B
Make it seem like it's been ages

   G#m                                    F#
Tomorrow's sun with buildings scrape the sky

   E
I love this country dearly

       B
I can feel the ladder clearly

     G#m                            F#
But never thought I'd be alone to try

E
Once I was outside Penn Station

B
Selling red and white carnations

G#m                               F#
We were still alone, my wife and I

E
Before we marry, save my money

B
Brought my dear wife over

       G#m                            F#
Now I work to bring my family state side

E                      B
But off the boat they stayed a while

      F#
Then scattered cross the co

E                  B             F#
Once a year I'll see them for a week or so at most

          E       B       G#m       F#
I took a walk

E
Practice isn't perfect

          B
With the market cuts and loss

     G#m                                  F#
I remind myself that times could be much worse

     E
My wife won't ask me questions

             B
And there's not so much to ask

            G#m                           F#
And she'll never flaunt around an empty purse

E
Once my mother-in-law came

          B
Just to stay a couple nights

      G#m                                 F#
And decided she will stay the rest of her life

   E                                    B
I watch my little children, play some board game in the kitchen

       G#m                              F#
And I sit and pray they never feel my strife.

     E               B                 F#
But then my partner called to say the pension funds were gone

    E                B
He made some bad investments

         F#
Now the accounts are overdrawn

          E       B       G#m       F#
I took a walk

C#m             D#m            E
Honey it's your son, I think I borrowed just too much

        C#m          D#m          
We had taxes we had bills

          E
We had a lifestyle on the front

       C#m               D#m        
And tonight I swear I'll come home

               E                 F#
And we'll make love like we're young

       C#m               D#m
And tomorrow you'll cook dinner

        E                 F#
For the neighbors and the kids

         C#m              D#m
We could rip apart those socialists

     E                F#
And all their damn taxes

       C#m          D#m
You'll see I am no criminal

    E                F#
I'm down on both bad knees

    C#m             D#m
I'm just too much a coward

     E               F#
To admit when I'm in need

          E       B       G#m       F#
I took a walk
