Funk rock shuffle beat (Tempo = 88) F C G Am7
F C G Am7
I'm writing you this letter from some old hotel
F C G Am7
I can feel the distance between us
F C G Am7
From the Spanish Steps to the Liberty Bell
F C G Am7 F C G Am7 (2X)
I know the angels have seen us... seen us, baby
F C G Am7
They see you down on Seventh Avenue,
F C G Am7
While you're just hanging by a thread
F C G Am7
And I'm sitting in a lonely room without a view,
F C G Am7
Wishing I was there with you instead
(CHORUS 1)
F C G Am7
Won't you walk through this world with me
F C G Am7
Walk through this world.
F C G Am7
Over the miles of mystery,
Dm7 Am7 F6 C F6 C
Walk through this world with me.
F C G Am7
I'm staring out across the rooftops, baby.
F C G Am7
I've seen the writing on the wall.
F C G Am7
Heard a little bit of thunder, at the seventh wonder,
F C G Am7
but everything is bound to rise and fall, that's all
(CHORUS 2)
F C G Am7
Walk through this world with me
F C G Am7
Walk through the world.
F C G Am7
Over the mountains and the shining sea,
Dm7 Am7 F6 C F6 C F6 C
Walk through this world with me... Walk on... Walk on, Walk on... Yeah...

Let me get this ringing out of my ears,
F C G Am7
Let me get these stars out of my eyes.
F C G Am7
'Cause I just want to look back over all the years
F C G Am7
with you right there standing by my side. Could you just...
F C G Am7
Won't you walk through this world with me
F C G Am7
Walk through this world.
F C G Am7
Over the miles of mystery,
Dm7 Am7 F6 C F6 C
Walk through this world with me.
F C G Am7
Walk through this world with me

Walk through this world with me... Walk on... Walk on, Walk on... Yeah...
=============================================================================
An interesting way to end the song is with the F//C//F//C// I've used that ended
many times and I've also used that as a segue into other songs as well. As a jam
into some Grateful Dead tunes it works quite well. Have fun with it!!
