J.P. Cormier - The Walk
INTRO: G C/G D G (2x)
C/G
As the road comes up to meet my feet
D G
The yellow line, a moonlit scar
C/G
Act one is done, the play is now complete
D G
A passing truck, a falling star
INSTRUMENTAL: G C/G D G (2x)
C/G
She hides away, but still she follows me
D G
Just out of reach, like a maddening itch
C/G
Is she the answer or just a mystery
D G
Am I a fool, I don't know which
C/G
I knew a girl, ten thousand yesterdays
D G
She had a man who gave his all
C/G
And we all wondered why she walked away
D G
She told me then, but now I don't recall
INSTRUMENTAL: G C/G D G (2x)
C/G
There's a river wide, but no place left to cross
D G
The bridges fell right where they burned
C/G
I slept last night and dreamed my map was lost
D G
A dead end road each way I turned
C/G
There must be times somewhere that I can steal
D G
A broken watch, an endless day
C/G
There must be ways to let the inside heal
D G
And let the surface just pass away
INSTRUMENTAL: G C/G D G (2x)
C/G
I reach for you and come up lame again
D G
It's hard to tell if you were ever there
C/G
I made this song, but I can't make it end
D G
The echo fills the midnight air
C/G
As the road comes up to meet my feet
D G
The yellow line, a moonlit scar
C/G
Act one is done, the play is now complete
D G
A passing truck, a falling star
