Landlocked Blues Ukulele chords by Bright Eyes

Verse:
  C       G7     C
If you walk away, I'll walk away
   C       G7      C
First tell me which road you will take
 Am      G       C       Am
I don't want to risk our paths crossing some day
  C         G7       C
So you walk that way, I'll walk this way

    C        G7    C
And the future it hangs over our heads
    C        G7    C
And it moves with each current event
    Am     G      C      Am
Till it falls all around like a cold steady rain
   C         G7      C
Just stay in when it's looking this way

    C          G7     C
And the moon's she's laying low in the sky
       C     G7    C
It's forcing everything metal to shine
    Am       G         C       Am
And the sidewalk holds diamonds like the jewelry store case
      C         G7      C
They argue walk this way, no, walk this way

  C       G7     C
And Laura's she's asleep in my bed
    C      G7      C
As I'm leaving she wakes up and says
  Am        G    C       C     Am
"I dreamed you were carried (away) on the crest of a wave
   C       G7      C
Baby don't go away, please, come here"

      C      G7     C
And there's kids playing guns in our street
     C      G7       C
One keeps pointing his tree branch at me
   Am      G     C     Am
So I put my hands up I say "enough is enough,
    C       G7       C
Man, If you walk away, I'll walk away"
(And that little f**ker shot me dead)

Chorus:
C7

Am    G   C
I found a liquid cure
Am   G     C
For my landlocked blues
    F   G    C    Am
It will pass away in a slow parade
   C       G       C
It's leaving I just dont know how soon

Bridge:
C G C C  C G C C  Am G C Am  C G C C

    C       G7   C
And the world's got me dizzy again
        C     G7     C
You think after growin' so old I'd be used to the spin
    Am     G       C      Am
But it only feels worse when I'm stuck in one place
        C        G7    C
So I just keep pacin' around or driving away

       C      G7     C
And I've been drinking the ink from my pen
        C    G7      C
And I've been balancing history books up on my head
     Am    G      C    Am
But they all boil down to one quotable phrase
    C        G7     C
If you love something, give it away

    C     G7    C
A good woman will pick you apart
   C     G7        C
A box full of suggestions for your possible heart
    Am    G       C   Am
And you may be offended, I know I was afraid
  C        G7       C
But don't walk away, don't walk away

    C      G7     C
We made love on the living room floor
     C      G7        C
With the noise in the background from a televised war
    Am    G          C       Am
In that deafening pleasure I thought I heard someone say
  C           G7        C
"If we walk away, I'll bet they'll walk away"

      C     G7     C
But you see greed is a bottomless pit
    C      G7          C
And our freedom's a joke now, We're just taking a p**s
    Am        G       C    Am
And the whole world must watch the sad comic display
     C        G7      C
If you're still free start running away
(Cause we're coming for ya')

Bridge:
C G C C  C G C C  Am G C Am  C G C C

      C    G7      C
I've get so tired of holding this pose
    C      G7       C
I feel more like a stranger every time I get home
    Am    G       C     Am
So I'm making a deal with the devils of fame
    C         G7        C
Saying "Show me the money, show me the money"

     C     G7      C
You'll be free honey once you have died
     C      G7      C
From the shackles of language and measurable time
     Am      G      C    Am
And then we can trade places, play musical graves
     C     G7     C
Till then walk away, walk away, walk away

Chorus:
C7

Am   G   C
So I'm up at dawn
Am   G   C
Putting on my shoes
F   G      C    Am
I just got to make a clean escape
  C       G        C
I'm leaving but I don't know where to
      Am      G        C
I know I'm leaving but I don't know where to
