INTRO
Am G Bm F#m x2
VERSE 1
D
I swapped my innocence for pride
A
Crushed the end within my stride
Bm F#m
Said 'I'm strong now I know that I'm a leaver"
D A Bm G
I love the sound of you walking away, you walking away
D A G
Mascara bleeds a blackened tear , oh
D A
And I am cold, yes I'm cold
F#m
But not as cold as you are
D A Bm G
I love the sound of you walking away, walking away
F#m
Hey, hey
A
Why don't you walk away?
A
Why don't you walk away?
Bb
Why don't you walk away?
CHORUS
Dm Bb
No buildings will fall down
Why don't you walk away?
Dm Bb
No quake will split the ground
Why don't you walk away?
Dm Gm
The sun won't swallow the sky
Why don't you walk away?
Dm Bb
Statues will not cry
Dm A
Why don't you walk away, why don't you walk away
C G A
Why don't you walk away
INTERLUDE
Am G Bm F#m x2
VERSE 2
D
I cannot turn to see those eyes
A
As apologies may rise
Bm F#m
I must be strong and stay an unbeliever
D A Bm G
And love the sound of you walking away, you walking away
D A G
Mascara bleeds into my eye
D A F#m
I'm not cold, I am old, at least as old as you are
D Bm D F#m
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la
G
La la la la la la
Bm F#
La la la la la la la
A
As you walk away
A
As you walk away
Bb
And as you walk away
CHORUS
Dm Bb
My headstone crumbles down
As you walk away
Dm Bb
The Hollywood wind's a howl
As you walk away
Dm Gm
The Kremlin's falling
As you walk away
Dm Bb
Radio 4 is static
Dm A C G A
As you walk away, oh as you walk away, as you walk away
END
Am G
The stab of stiletto
F#m C#
On a silent night
Am
Stalin smiles
G
Hitler laughs
Bm
Churchill claps
F#
Mao Tse-Tung on the back
