Walking Home Late

E                     A         E
Fourth and Beale day after the first
E                         B               A
This heat's unreal - I'm dyin' of thirst
A                      E          A
Pick up the pay - for pullin' my weight
A          E
'neath the street lights and stars
E        B            E
Now I'm walking home late

E                               A         E
Lights up on the river drop of rain just fell
E                    B           A
With the neon by the motor hotel
A                       E        A
Muddy water swirlin' - midnight cross
E                                B        E
Morning glory's creepin' up the red brick walls

A                                  E
Walkin' home whistlin' 'neath the stars above
B
A careless, happy song of love
A/D                         E         A/D
Today at noon I thought I'd dis-in-te-grate
          E                       B            E
But it's cooling off now and I'm walking home late

A
Things didn't workout west in Hollywood
A                        E       B        E
So you never got lucky, did you ever get good?
A
Forget the money you're gifted and young
F#m                             B
You're sweet as honey songs'll roll off your tongue - girl

E                         A        E
Sunday in Memphis by the river at dock
E                               B                   A
Th' Washington singers out in Handy Park - there's a
A                     E            A
Twelve year old girl knows how to play
E                                   B       E
Rockin' hard and singin' through a beat up PA

E              A        E
Peabody Hotel lobby is dead
E                            B
Looks like this whole town's gone to bed
A                           E        A
A breeze is stirrin' - the walls radiate
E                           B             E
There's no one in sight I'm walkin' home late

A                                  E
Walkin' home whistlin' 'neath the stars above
B
A careless happy song of love
A/D                         E         A/D
Today at noon I thought of hoppin' a freight
          E                       B            E
But it's coolin' off now and I'm walkin' home late
