As recorded by The Turtles (From the 1965 Album IT AIN'T ME BABE) [Intro] Gm [Verse 1]
Gm                     F                  Gm
The cold clean air, it sets my boot heels on fire

                                    F                         Gm
But if I told you I've forgotten my past, I'd be a motherless liar

  F                      Gm
A woman of the street, a woman of the world

  F                      Gm
A hell-made model of the devil's girl

                          F                           Gm
I'm gonna hold my head up high and take a walk in the sun
[Verse 2]
                   F                               Gm
Well, she gave her heart to so many that shattered my world

                             F                      Gm
Ah, but a man can't ruin his life for the love of a girl

          F                             Gm
I'm gonna throw away my crutches, gonna run in the rain

      F                              Gm
Gonna let my nostrils swell with the nature of the plains

                          F                           Gm
I'm gonna hold my head up high and take a walk in the sun
[Bridge]
          F                               Gm
Well, she loved so many men, my heart was breakin'

     F                              Gm
With every little kiss, well I'd be achin'

        F                        Gm
Yet whatever I've be given to be taken

                    F             Bb      F       G       C     D
Ah, but a man can't live when the story begins, begins to slip away
[Verse 3]
          Gm                   F                Gm
I'm gonna walk right down that road and never return

                            F                       Gm
And not until these fires inside me are startin' to burn

               F                         Gm
'Cause I don't need a gal beside me or a gal to keep me warm

     F                               Gm
Or a gal that I can talk to 'til the early hours of morn'

                          F                           Gm
I'm gonna hold my head up high and take a walk in the sun
[Guitar Solo] G F Bb F G C D [Verse 4]
D               Gm                F                Gm
Well, I'm gonna walk on down that road and never return

                            F                       Gm
And not until these fires inside me are startin' to burn

               F                         Gm
'Cause I don't need a gal beside me or a gal to keep me warm

     F                               Gm
Or a gal that I can talk to 'til the early hours of morn'

                          F                           Gm
I'm gonna hold my head up high and take a walk in the sun

                          F                           Gm
I'm gonna hold my head up high and take a walk in the sun
