Walking In The Wind chords
Traffic (Jim Capaldi, Steve Winwood)

D G 2x *

DYou (xx0232@1)walk and talk and move around in circles
     G (320003@1)                               D (xx0232@1) (D G)
Your friends telling you you are doing fine
D (xx0232@1)                               GYou (320003@1)can't see that snowball as it hurtles 
                                        D (xx0232@1)  (D G)
Through the shattered membranes of your mind
           D (xx0232@1)                      GIf (320003@1)I could talk to you for just one minute
                                            D (xx0232@1)(D G)
Then you would know what it is I am getting at
    D (xx0232@1)                                 GBut (320003@1)there again your head's got nothing in it
                                 D (xx0232@1)(D G)
By the way you left without your hat

Em (022000@1)               A (x02220@1)                 EmA                       
I'm walking in the wind looking at the sky
Em (022000@1)                              Bb (x1333x@1)   DHanging (xx0232@1)on a breeze and wondering why, why

D G 2x

DYour (xx0232@1)old man's headed for the final pay-off
    G (320003@1)                          D (xx0232@1)(D G)
The joker that you got is fading too
    DAnd (xx0232@1)all the sharks that come around for the rip-off 
          G (320003@1)                      D (xx0232@1)(D G)
Are gonna tear the flesh right off you
    D (xx0232@1)                                
The plastic princess hangs her head in wonder 
       G (320003@1)              D (xx0232@1) 
at the silver glittered boys
D (xx0232@1)                  GTrying, (320003@1)trying to compete
    D (xx0232@1)                            
And all at once the room begins to thunder 
    G (320003@1)                                 D (xx0232@1)  (D G)
And all that's left is the stain on the sheet

Em (022000@1)               A (x02220@1)                 EmA                       
I'm walking in the wind looking at the sky
Em (022000@1)                              Bb (x1333x@1)   DHanging (xx0232@1)on a breeze and wondering why, why

D G 2x

DThe (xx0232@1)prostitute is standing on the corner
G (320003@1)                             D (xx0232@1) (D G)
Suffering so much pain to stay alive
DShe's (xx0232@1)so real, that life itself bows down before her
             G (320003@1)               D (xx0232@1) (D G)
She couldn't make that nine to five
          DWhile (xx0232@1)the president is crying, crying in the White House
    G (320003@1)                             D (xx0232@1)  (D G)
The prime minister's really got the blues
DAll (xx0232@1)the heads of state are busy playing cat & mouse
                   G (320003@1)                               D (xx0232@1) (D G)
'Cause you can see none of them have ever paid their dues

Em (022000@1)               A (x02220@1)                 EmA                       
I'm walking in the wind looking at the sky
Em (022000@1)                              Bb (x1333x@1)   DHanging (xx0232@1)on a breeze and wondering why, why
