Landlocked Blues(Chords)

	        

C                 Gsus4      C 
If you walk away, I?ll walk away 
C                   Gsus4         C 
First tell me which road you will take 
  Am            Gsus4          C             Am 
I don?t want to risk our paths crossing some day 
   C                  Gsus4          C 
So you walk that way, I?ll walk this way 

And the future hangs over our heads 
And it moves with each current event 
Until it falls all around like a cold steady rain 
Just stay in when it?s looking this way 

And the moon?s laying low in the sky 
Forcing everything metal to shine 
And the sidewalk holds diamonds like the jewellery store case 
They argue walk this way, no, walk this way 

And Laura?s asleep in my bed 
As I?m leaving she wakes up and says 
?I dreamed you were carried away on the crest of a wave 
Baby don?t go away, come here? 

And there?s kids playing guns in the street 
And ones pointing his tree branch at me 
So I put my hands up I say ?enough is enough, 
If you walk away, I?ll walk away? 
And he shot me dead 

Am        Gsus4  C 
I found a liquid cure 
Am     Gsus4      C 
For my landlocked blues 
        F    Gsus4       C      Am 
It will pass away like a slow parade 
     C             G              C 
It?s leaving but I don?t know how soon  



And the world?s got me dizzy again 
You think after 22 years I?d be used to the spin 
And it only feels worse when I stay in one place 
So I?m always pacing around or walking away 

I keep drinking the ink from my pen 
And I?m balancing history books up on my head 
But it all boils down to one quotable phrase 
If you love something, give it away 

A good woman will pick you apart 
A box full of suggestions for your possible heart 
But you may be offended and you may be afraid 
But don?t walk away, don?t walk away 

We made love on the living room floor 
With the noise in the background of a televised war 
And in the deafening pleasure I thought I heard someone say 
?If we walk away, they?ll walk away? 

But greed is a bottomless pit 
And our freedom?s a joke, we?re just taking a piss 
And the whole world must watch the sad comic display 
If you?re still free start running away 

Cause we?re coming for you! 


I?ve grown tired of holding this pose 
I feel more like a stranger each time I come home 
So I?m making a deal with the devils of fame 
Saying ?let me walk away, please? 

You?ll be free child once you have died 
From the shackles of language and measurable time 
And then we can trade places, play musical graves 
Till then walk away, walk away 

Am     G     C 
So I?m up at dawn 
Am      G     C 
Putting on my shoes 
       F       Gsus4  C     Am 
I just want to make a clean escape 
    C             Gsus4            C 
I?m leaving but I don?t know where to 
           Am            Gsus4            C 
I know I?m leaving but I don?t know where to
