Walking In The Wind chords
Traffic (Jim Capaldi, Steve Winwood)
D G 2x *
You [D]walk and talk and move around in circles
Your [G]friends telling you you are doing [D]fine[(D] [G)]
[D]You can't see that snowball as it [G]hurtles
Through the shattered membranes of your [D]mind[(D] [G)]
If I could [D]talk to you for just one [G]minute
Then you would know what it is I am getting [D]at[(D] [G)]
But [D]there again your head's got nothing [G]in it
By the way you left without your [D]hat[(D] [G)]
[Em]I'm walking in the [A]wind looking at the [Em]sky[A]
[Em]Hanging on a breeze and wondering [Bb]why, wh[D]y
D G 2x
Your [D]old man's headed for the final pay-off
The [G]joker that you got is fading [D]too[(D] [G)]
And [D]all the sharks that come around for the rip-off
Are gonna [G]tear the flesh right off [D]you[(D] [G)]
The [D]plastic princess hangs her head in wonder
at the [G]silver glittered [D]boys
[D]Trying, trying to com[G]pete
And [D]all at once the room begins to thunder
And [G]all that's left is the stain on the [D]sheet[(D] [G)]
[Em]I'm walking in the [A]wind looking at the [Em]sky[A]
[Em]Hanging on a breeze and wondering [Bb]why, wh[D]y
D G 2x
The [D]prostitute is standing on the corner
[G]Suffering so much pain to stay a[D]live[(D] [G)]
[D]She's so real, that life itself bows down before her
She couldn't [G]make that nine to [D]five[(D] [G)]
While the [D]president is crying, crying in the White House
The [G]prime minister's really got the [D]blues[(D] [G)]
[D]All the heads of state are busy playing cat & mouse
'Cause you can see [G]none of them have ever paid their [D]dues[(D] [G)]
[Em]I'm walking in the [A]wind looking at the [Em]sky[A]
[Em]Hanging on a breeze and wondering [Bb]why, wh[D]y
[D]God knows [G]why, [D]why, [G]why
D G . . . .
