E             A                          D 
If we leave here today 
               A              D 
we could be a thousand miles away 
A             E    D              E 
Take to that road see how far it goes 
             A           D 
And on that great ocean road 
           A             D 
Oh the country's in our bones 
          A               E 
All the trouble that you know 
D                  E 
empties out as you go 
 
 
Chorus: 
           A              E 
Oh come on walk with me, talk with me,  
A             D 
tell me your stories 
A           E           F#m      D 
I'll do my best to understand you 
                  A                D 
You're flesh and blood, flesh and blood 
A                      D 
Don't refuse me your love 
A                     (Amaj7) 
More than words can express 
D                      E 
More than wealth or success 
 
             A                  D 
Oh there's a thousand things to do 
           A                    D 
So let's start here with me and you 
         A             Amaj7 
All the pain that you feel 
         D   (Bm7)         (D) 
All the hurt that seems so real 
            A             E 
Oh come on walk with me, talk with me, 
A             D 
tell me your stories 
A               E            F#m      D 
I'll do my very best to understand you 
                   A 
You're flesh and blood 
 
Break 
 
C    Em   C      G 
You can't go on holding back 
 
the flooding river 
C                      G 
Keeping all that fear inside 
Bm                          D 
I understand how trouble haunts you 
B                          E 
Yes and 1 do know how you feel 
 
          A                 D 
There's a thousand things to do 
           A                    D         
So let's start here with me and you 
           A          Amaj7 
Gonna take a little time 
       D 
Let's see what we can find 
 
Oh come on walk with me.... .
