<Intro chords> And as a woman in this world, well you must have felt like this That a man might come along with another hard luck song And betray you with a kiss But would you reconsider me - though I know I've caused you pain I've taken vows with you, and I believe them to be true Now can we take a little rain' We could hit that road in a flash of lightning Maybe it won't be so frightning <Chorus> x2 <Intro chords> x7 I'm gonna keep on walking, baby ... ------------- On the album, the song is carried by electric piano, with electric guitar and Hammond organ being decorative. If you want to play it by yourself, and you're not totally confident in the key of F (rolls eyes condescendingly), you may find it easier to play in D with a capo on the 3rd fret. In this case, F becomes D, Bb/C becomes G/A (x00033), C becomes A, Bb becomes G, Am becomes F#m, A/C# becomes F# (244322), Dm becomes Bm, Gm7 becomes Em7, F/A becomes D/F# (200232), and Eb/Bb becomes C/G. Anyway, back to what IS on the album. The guitar, piano and organ are pretty well mixed together, and so it's quite hard to pick out what the guitar is doing. Hence the following transcription is approximate, and any repeating sections will probably be played with different variations each time - but what's here should give you a fair idea. Please don't try to play it note-for-note. Comments and corrections welcome....
