WALKING AND WHISTLING BLUES - Four Knights
(written by Les Paul) whistling to be inserted by those that can!
Foot tap to the walking beat! (I play with Capo on II)
E……….
A
As I walk through the city
A E E7
Walking and whistling down this lonely street
A E E7
Counting the lamp posts and whistling the blues to the walking beat
A B7 E
Will I ever find that someone that I long to meet
E E7 E E7 E E7 E E7
And walk And walk And walk And walk
A E E7
When I think of my baby and I remember how he let me down
A E E7
Gotta keep walking and whistling the blues to this lonely town
A7 B7 E
And the echo of my footsteps follows me around
E
Shadows on my left
E7
Shadows on my right
E E7
Guess I’ll be walking the rest of the ni….ght
A
Looking for someone, maybe its you
E E7
Someone to keep me from feeling blue
A7 B7 E E7
And to help me lose…..these walking and whistling blues
B7 E E7 E
Do do do do do doooooooooooo
