WALK TALL by John Mellencamp
Tabbed by John Stephens
Intro G,Dsus4,C9 Capo II
G
The simple minded
Dsus4
And the uninformed
C9
Can be easily led astray
G Dsus4
And those that cannot connect the dots
C9
Hey look the other way
G Dsus4
People believe what they want to believe
C9
When it makes no sense at all
G Dsus4
So be careful of those killing in Jesus's name*
C9
He don't believe in killing at all*
G Dsus4 C9
Walk tall
G Dsus4 C9
Yeah walk on
EM Dsus4
Through this world
G Dsus4 C9
Walk tall
G Dsus4
Somewhere out in the distance
C9
Is the death of you and me
G Dsus4
Even though we don't think of it much
C9
It's still out there for us to see
G Dsus4
If you treat life like a bar room fight
C9
You'll die stinking of gin
G Dsus4
No drunkards are allowed in heaven
C9
No sinners will get in

G Dsus4
So be careful in what you believe in
C9
There's plenty to get you confused
G Dsus4
And in this land called paradise
C9
You must walk in many men's shoes
G Dsus4 C9
Bigotry and hatred are enemies to us all
G Dsus4
Grace, mercy and forgiveness

Will help a man walk tall
So walk tall
Yeah, walk on
Walk tall
