F - G 2X
VERSE
FHe swivels his head tears his eGyes from the screen
FAs his past puts him back in AtlanticG City
FThere's not even a demon in HGeaven or Hell
FIs it all just human disguise as I waGlk down the aisle
CHORUS
And I'm Fgone
Now I'm older than mGovies
And I Fknow who's there
When silhouettes Gfall
And I'm Bbgone
Like I'm dancing on Dmangels
And I'm G#gone through a crack in the Gpast
Like a dead man
INTRO
F - G x2
Walking
Like a dead man walking
VERSE
FThree old men dancing Gunder the lamplight
FShaking their sex and their bones and the Gboys that we were
FAn alien nation in therapy sliding nGaked and new
FLike a bad tempered child on a rain slicked Gstreet
CHORUS
And I'm Fgone
Now I'm older than mGovies
And I Fknow who's there
When silhouettes Gfall
And I'm Bbgone
Like I'm dancing on Dmangels
G# G / D6sus4
And I'm gone through a crack in the past
Like a dead man
INTRO
F - G x4
Walking
Like a dead man walking
Dead man
Dead man
Dead man
