INTRO
|: Em / G / | D / A / :|
[Verse 1A]
Em G D A Em
I walk a lonely road, the only one that I have ever known
G Dsus A Em
Don't know where it goes, But it's home to me and I walk alone
Em G D A
[VERSE 1B]
Em G D A Em
I walk this empty street, On the Boulevard of broken dreams
G D A Em
Where the city sleeps, And I'm the only one and I walk alone
[PRE CHORUS]
Em G D A Em
I walk alone, I walk alone.
Em G D A
I walk alone, I walk a....
[Chorus]
C G D Em
My shadow's the only one that walks beside me
C G D Em
My shallow hearts the only thing that's beating
C G D Em
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
C G B7
Till then I walk alone
[TAG]
Em G D A
Ah-Ah Ah-Ah Ah-Ah Ahhh-Ah
Em G D A
haaa-ah Ah-Ah Ah-Ah Ah-Ah
[VERSE 2A]
Em G D A Em
I'm walking down the line That divides me somewhere in my mind
G D A Em
On the border line of the edge And where I walk alone
Em G D A
[VERSE 2B]
Em G D A Em
Read between the lines What's messed up and everything's all right
G D A Em
Check my vital signs, to know I'm still alive And I walk alone
[PRE CHORUS]
Em G D A Em
I walk alone, I walk alone.
Em G D A
I walk alone, I walk a....
[CHORUS]
C G D Em
My shadow's the only one that walks beside me
C G D Em
My shallow hearts the only thing that's beating
C G D Em
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
C G B
Till then I walk alone
[TAG]
Em G D A
Ah-Ah Ah-Ah Ah-Ah Ahhh-Ah
Em G D A
haaa-ah Ah-Ah Ah-Ah Ah-Ah

My shallow hearts the only thing that's beating
