"Walk Through the World" by Marc Cohn, John Leventhal
Funk rock shuffle beat (Tempo 88) F C G Am7
[F]I'm writing you this let[C]ter from some o[G]ld h[Am7]otel
[F]I can feel the dis[C]tance be[G]tween [Am7]us
[F]From the Spanish St[C]eps to the Lib[G]erty B[Am7]ell
F C G Am7 F C G Am7 (2X)
I know the angels have seen us... seen us, baby
[F]They see you do[C]wn on Seventh Av[G]enue,[Am7]
[F]While you're just han[C]ging by a th[G]read[Am7]
[F]And I'm sitting[C] in a lonely room wit[G]hout a v[Am7]iew,
[F]Wishing I was th[C]ere with you i[G]nste[Am7]ad
(CHORUS 1)
Won't you wa[F]lk through this wo[C]rld with me[G][Am7]
[F]Walk through this wo[C]rld.[G][Am7]
[F]Over the miles of mys[C]tery,[G][Am7]
[Dm7]Walk through this w[Am7]orld with me.[F6][C][F6][C]
I[F]'m staring out ac[C]ross the rooftops, b[G]aby.[Am7]
I[F]'ve seen the wri[C]ting on the w[G]all.[Am7]
He[F]ard a little bit of thu[C]nder, a[G]t the seventh wo[Am7]nder,
but [F]everything is bo[C]und to rise and fa[G]ll, that's [Am7]all
(CHORUS 2)
W[F]alk through this wo[C]rld with me[G][Am7]
Wa[F]lk through the wo[C]rld.[G][Am7]
O[F]ver the mou[C]ntains and the shi[G]ning [Am7]sea,
[Dm7]Walk through this w[Am7]orld with [F6]me.[C].. Walk on[F6]...[C] Walk on, Walk on.[F6].. [C]Yeah...

L[F]et me get this rin[C]ging o[G]ut of my e[Am7]ars,
L[F]et me get these st[C]ars out of my e[G]yes.[Am7]
'[F]Cause I just want to lo[C]ok back over a[G]ll the y[Am7]ears
with yo[F]u right there sta[C]nding by my s[G]ide. C[Am7]ould you just...
Won't you wa[F]lk through this wo[C]rld with me[G][Am7]
[F]Walk through this wo[C]rld.[G][Am7]

[Dm7]Walk through this w[Am7]orld with [F6]me.[C].. Walk on[F6]...[C] Walk on, Walk on.[F6].. [C]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!!
