Walking Man by James Taylor






              Walking Man








Moving in silent desperation, 
keeping an eye on the Holy Land.
A hypothetical destination, 
say, who is this walking man?

Well, the leaves have come to turning 
And the goose has gone to fly
And bridges are for burning, 
So don't you let that yearning pass you by,
Walking man, walking man walks. 
Any other man stops and talks 
But the walking man walks.

Well the frost is on the pumpkin 
And the hay is in the barn.
Pappy's come to rambling on, 
stumbling around drunk down on the farm.

And the walking man walks. He doesn't know nothing at all.
Any other man stops and talks 
But the walking man walks on by, walk on by.

Most everybody's got seed to sow. 
It ain't always easy for a weed to grow, no, no.
So he don't hoe the row for no one, 
For sure one's always missing
And something is never quite right.
Ah, but who would want to listen to you 
Kissing his existence good night?

Walking man walk. Walk on by my door. 
Well, any other man stops and talks,
But not the walking man. He's the walking man, 
Born to walk, walk on walking man.
Well now, would he have wings to fly? Yeah. Would he be free?
Golden wings against the sky, walking man, walk on by.
So long, walking man, so long

Intro: Emaj9 Esus4-6  (repeat several times) to E or Eadd9


Moving in [E7]silent despera[A]tion [B]
Keeping an eye on the[Esus4-6] Holy Land [E]
A hypo[E7]thetical destina[A]tion [B]
Say, who is this [Esus4-6]waliking[E] man? [Esus4-6] [Gadd9/A]

Well, the [Dmaj7]leaves have come to turn[Asus4]ing 
And the [Dmaj7]goose has gone to fly [A7sus4] [Bb sus]
And [Bm7]bridges are for[E9] buning 
So [Bm7]don't you let that [E9]yearning pass you by [A13] 

Walking [Dmaj7]man [A7sus4], walking man [Dmaj7]walks [A7sus4] [Bm7] 
Well, any other man[E9] stops and talks [A13]
But the walking man [Dmaj7]walks [A7sus4]

Well the frost is on the pumpkin 
And the hay is in the barn 
An Pappy's come to rambling on 
Stumbling around drunk 
Down on the farm 

And the walking man walks 
Doesn't know nothing at all 
Any other man stops and talks 
But the walking man[Dmaj7]walks on by[A7sus4] [Dmaj7] 
Walk on by [Bm7] [A] 

[Gmaj7]
Most [F#m7]every[Em7]body's got [A7sus4]seed to [Dmaj7]sow 
[Gmaj7]
It ain't always [F#7add5]easy for a weed to [B9]grow, [F#7#5]no [B9]
So [Eadd9]he don't hoe the row[Gadd9/A] for no one 

Oh for sure he's always missing 
And something is never quite right 
Ah, but who would want to listen to you 
Kissing his existence good night 

Walking man walk on by my door 
Well, any other man stops and talks 
But [F#7]not the [Bm7]walking man..... 

[E9] [A7sus4] [F#7] [Bm7] [E9]...(ad lib)...etc..

(ad lib during fade, etc)

He's the walking man 
Born to walk 
Walk on walking man 
Well now, would he have wings to fly 
Would he be free 
Golden wings against the sky 
Walking man, walk on by 
So long, walking man, so long....
