WALK TALL by John Mellencamp

Tabbed by John Stephens

Intro G,Dsus4,C9  Capo II

G                    
The simple minded 
  Dsus4     
And the uninformed
C9                     
Can be easily led astray
  G                        Dsus4
And those that cannot connect the dots
C9                           
Hey look the other way
 G                          Dsus4                               
People believe what they want to believe
         C9                          
When it makes no sense at all
  G                              Dsus4           
So be careful of those killing in Jesus's name*
               C9
He don't believe in killing at all*




G    Dsus4   C9 
Walk tall
G      Dsus4      C9      
Yeah walk on
                Em Dsus4
Through this world
G     Dsus4    C9
Walk tall
G              Dsus4                     
Somewhere out in the distance
      C9                               
Is the death of you and me
G                          Dsus4                               
Even though we don't think of it much
           C9                                  
It's still out there for us to see
G                       Dsus4                        
If you treat life like a bar room fight
           C9
You'll die stinking of gin
G                            Dsus4                         
No drunkards are allowed in heaven
           C9
No sinners will get in
G   Dsus4    C9
Walk tall
G    Dsus4       C9
Yeah, walk on
G    Dsus4   C9
Walk tall
              EMDsus4
Through this world
G  Dsus4 C9
Walk tall
G                         Dsus4
So be careful in what you believe in
          C9
There's plenty to get you confused
G                    Dsus4
And in this land called paradise
           C9
You must walk in many men's shoes
G                        Dsus4      C9
Bigotry and hatred are enemies to us all
G              Dsus4      
Grace, mercy and forgiveness
         C9
Will help a man walk tall
So walk tall
Yeah, walk on
Walk tall
Through this world
Through this world
Yeah, walk tall
Then walk on
Walk tall
Then walk on
Through this world
Through this world
Through this world
Through this world
Walk tall
Walk tall
Then walk on
Walk tall
