[Verse]
    F        Fsus4 F       Bbsus4
She happened to be walking
    F    Fsus4     F    Bbsus4
The same street as you
    F        Fsus4      F       Bbsus4
You gaze but there's no touching
            F        Fsus4   F    Bbsus4
In case you soil the perfect view
     Bbmaj7           Gm7
Your life has been so empty
               C7sus4  Bb         Bbsus4 [break]
But there's no telling who you'll meet


[Chorus]
      F   Fsus4       F     Bbsus4
Walk on,       stroll on

Walk on,       stroll on


[Verse]
F     Fsus4    F         Bbsus4
Amber lights emprint themselves
        F        Fsus4   F    Bbsus4
In your soul and in your brain
     F      Fsus4     F       Bbsus4
That smokey blue transfusion
              F      Fsus4     F    Bbsus4
Will keep you warm beneath the rain
     Bbmaj7           Gm7
Your life has been so empty
               C7sus4  Bb         Bbsus4 [break]
But there's no telling who you'll meet


[Interlude 1]
Bb               Gb
  One glimpse of heaven
          Bb      Bb        Gm [break]
And she's walking past your street


[Chorus]
      F   Fsus4       F     Bbsus4

Walk on,       stroll on


[Verse]
F      Fsus4   F        Bbsus4
Winter takes a while to pass
    F       Fsus4   F    Bbsus4
But soon it will be May
F     Fsus4  F       Bbsus4
Sun embraces colour
                 F           Fsus4  F     Bbsus4
Then there's the sweet scent of the hay
    Bbmaj7           Gm7
You know I need your warm blue eyes
   C7sus4   Bb           Bbsus4 [break]
To guide me through this night


[Interlude 2]
Bb           Gb                 Bb6     Bb     Gm
  And in the morning, you're as certain as the light
C7sus4    Bbma7 Bb6 Bb   
No more excuses,   
Bb      Bb      Bbsus4 [break]
Nothing left to say

      F   Fsus4       F     Bbsus4
Walk on,       stroll on
