Tabbed by John Stephens

Capo II


[Intro]
G  Dsus2  Am

G
The simple minded
  Dsus2
And the uninformed
Am
Can be easily led astray
  G                        Dsus2
And those that cannot connect the dots
Am
Hey look the other way
 G                          Dsus2
People believe what they want to believe
         Am
When it makes no sense at all
  G                              Dsus2
So be careful of those killing in Jesus's name*
               Am
He don't believe in killing at all*

G    Dsus2   Am
Walk tall
G      Dsus2      Am
Yeah walk on
                Em Dsus2
Through this world
G     Dsus2    Am
Walk tall
G              Dsus2
Somewhere out in the distance
      Am
Is the death of you and me
G                          Dsus2
Even though we don't think of it much
           Am
It's still out there for us to see
G                       Dsus2
If you treat life like a bar room fight
           Am
You'll die stinking of gin
G                            Dsus2
No drunkards are allowed in heaven
           Am
No sinners will get in
G   Dsus2    Am
Walk tall
G    Dsus2       Am
Yeah, walk on
G    Dsus2   Am
Walk tall
              Em Dsus2
Through this world
G  Dsus2 Am
Walk tall
G                         Dsus2
So be careful in what you believe in
          Am
There's plenty to get you confused
G                    Dsus2
And in this land called paradise
           Am
You must walk in many men's shoes
G                        Dsus2      Am
Bigotry and hatred are enemies to us all
G              Dsus2
Grace, mercy and forgiveness
         Am
Will help a man walk tall
So walk tall
Yeah, walk on
Walk tall
Through this world
Through this world
Yeah, walk tall
Then walk on
Walk tall
Then walk on
Through this world
Through this world
Through this world
Through this world
Walk tall
Walk tall
Then walk on
Walk tall
