Em           C           D                EmEm(D) x 3
Shut off the TV and peel off those Sunday gloves
    Am             Em                     D        EmEm(D) x 3
And I'll stain the clean that you've been counting
Em      C               D         GG(D) x 4
Old Mr. Fletcher passed by here today
      Am          Em           D        
       EmEm(D) x 4
After 40 years of toil he just up and walked away

Fantastic, the panic that showed in his eyes
He shrugged when I asked him about it
He said, "Young man, pay heed, you listen well to what I say
Now there comes a time for a man to walk away"                       fin:

        D                           Em
  Walk away (walk away) I'll be a parade
      C            B                           Em
  And I'll be determined that no one shall dissuade
        C         D              G
  On my way, I'll sure take some time
      C            B                          EmEm(D) x 4
  And burn all the bridges that I'm leaving behind

He passed by again and he was shivering from the cold
I'm not sure but I think that he was trying
He told me about the weather and something old to pay
But tomorrow, he said, I'm gonna surely walk away

  Refrain

  (solo)  fin:

  Walk away (walk away) I'll be a parade
                                                EmEm(D) x 3 Em!
  And I'll be determined that no one shall dissuade
