Walk Through Walls
G Am G/B C
Everybody wants to feel those arms around them
G Am G/B C
To be rocked like a cradle by their mama, their lover or the Lord
G Am G/B C
And hearts live on no matter how you try and drown them
G Am G/B C
So throw that self-righteous self-pity overboard
Am G
You greet the dawn with such nonchalance
Am G
As if you’ve seen it all
Am G
As if such glory only happens once
C/G D/A
As if your heart could walk through walls
G Am G/B C
Walk through walls
G Am G/B C
Walk through walls
G Am G/B C

Autumn chased me to Charlottesville
G Am G/B C
The first crisp days following me as I head south
G Am G/B C
Singing low rumbling harmonies
G Am G/B C
And laughing right out loud
Am G
I’ve got a lover in Carolina
Am G
She likes to call me baby doll
Am G
She’s a waitress at the anywhere diner
C/G D/A
She’s got a heart that can walk through walls
G Am G/B C
Walk through walls
G Am G/B C
Walk through walls

Em D C
Languid summer slowly said goodbye
Em D C
With tranquil smile and hooded eyes
Em D C
Still dancing to last nights music
Em D C
Still waiting for the moon to rise

G Am G/B C
Dropped my life in a big blue mailbox
G Am G/B C
In an Alabama grocery store parking lot
G Am G/B C
Got in my car and just drove in circles
G Am G/B C
Trying to remember what it is I forgot
Am G
All the ghosts down in New Orleans
Am G
All the sinners in St. Paul
Am G
Do they know how much you adore them?
C/G D/A
And that your heart can walk through walls?
G Am G/B C
Walk through walls
G Am G/B C
Walk through walls
G Am G/B C
Poetry isn’t always dark and romantic
G Am G/B C
Sometimes it just keeps you company
G Am G/B C
Or offers to take you out to breakfast
G Am G/B C
Maybe makes you a cup of tea
Am G
Do you ever wonder what it was that woke you?
Am G
Do you marvel that someone heard your call?
Am G
Did you ever ask her if it broke you?
C/G D/A
And that your heart can walk through walls?
G Am G/B C
Walk through walls
G Am G/B C
Walk through walls
G Am G/B C
End on G
