The chords below are just the basic versions, but throughout the song are added harmonies and extensions.
F# often has the added 9th and 11th, while the Dmaj7 messes around in lydian (raised 4th).
Faug is Faug7


[Intro]

F# D C


[Verse 1]

F#
Feels like I've been here before
D C
All things don't seem the same no more
F#
Although I know I'm my mother's child
D C
I gotta break free into the wild


[Interlude]

F# D C
Ohhh


[Verse 2]

F#
Some things just seem to take so long
D C
I've been thinking 'bout what's gone wrong
F#
I've been searching for miles and miles
D C
Looking for someone to walk with me


[Chorus]

F#
Walk with me (walk, walk)
Dmaj7 C
Walk with me (walk, walk)
F#
Walk with me (walk, walk)
Dmaj7 C
Walk with me (walk, walk)


[Verse 3]

F#
All this doubt's been troublin' me
D C
There's so much more that I can be
F#
It feels like I'm on borrowed time
D C
You got yours, I gotta take what's mine


[Chorus]

F#
Walk with me (walk, walk)
Dmaj7 C
Walk with me (walk, walk)
F#
Walk with me (walk, walk)
Dmaj7 C
Walk with me (walk, walk)

F# D C
F# D C

Walk with me, show me the right direction
F#maj7 Faug Bbm7 Gm7b5 F#maj7
Walk with me, although I've been searching all my life for where I'm supposed to be

I am my mother's child

Walk with me, show me pure affection
F#maj7 Faug Bbm Gm7b5
Walk with me, show me the right direction
F#maj7 Faug
I am my father's child, even though I walk

I am more than things you won't forgive (Walk with me)
