Intro: G Em G Em G Em Em7 G (Repeat) 

   G          Em 
Oh never mind that 
          G      Em   
I'm gonna go downtown 
          G         Em 
I've got a 2 dollar bill 
      Em7             G 
And a girl who hangs around 

           G     Em 
Well it's a slow walk 
         G     Em 
Oh it's a slow walk 
         G     Em 
Oh it's a slow walk 
         C            G 
From the bottom to the top 

(repeat intro chords) 

   G       Em 
Now my old man says 
 G               Em 
I ain't been the same 
         G        Em 
Since the bad I'm feelin' 
    Em7     G 
Got into my brain  

           G     Em 
Well it's a slow walk 
      G     Em 
It's a slow walk 
         G     Em 
Oh it's a slow walk 
         C            G 
From the bottom to the top 

(repeat intro chords) 

             G               Em     
You stick the needle in your arm  
        G            Em 
And your baby starts cryin' 
              G              Em 
You stick the needle in your arm 
           Em7        G 
Well there ain't no denying  

           G     Em 
That it's a slow walk 
      G     Em 
It's a slow walk 
         G     Em 
Oh it's a slow walk 
         C             G 
From the bottom to the top 

(repeat intro chords) 

     G        Em 
Now I ain't as bright 
       G           Em 
As the sun when it shines 
        G        Em 
When you say you forgive me 
G        Em 
Start to believe 
           G  Em 
That it's a lie 
      G  Em 
It's a lie 
         G  Em   C   G 
Oh it's a lie 

       G          Em 
Oh but never mind that 
         G       Em 
I'm gonna go downtown 
          G         Em 
I've got a 2 dollar bill 
      Em7              G 
And a girl that hangs around  

           G     Em 
Well it's a slow walk 
      G     Em 
It's a slow walk 
         G     Em 
Oh it's a slow walk 
         C             G 
From the bottom to the top
