Capo: 4.
Really simple and touching song in my opinion. You can capo this however you want
to fit your voice, I don't use a capo but I believe the original is in capo 4. I
added a few stylistic things I use to make it sound better (my opinion) use them
if you wish, enjoy!
Looking Gback
He sees itD all
It was Emher first date the Dnight he came to Ccall
Her dad said Gson
Have her home onD time
And Empromise me you'll Dnever leave her Cside
AmHe took herG to a show in Dtown Am
And he was Gten feet off the Cground
(Chorus)
He was walking her Ghome
And holding her Dhand
Oh the way she Emsmiled it stole the Dbreath right out of Chim
Down that old Groad
With the stars up aDbove
He remembers wEmhere he was the Dnight he fell in lCove
He was walking her Ghome
Interlude: (keep playing that G for a measure then) D Em C (play for a measure
then let it ring on the first beat into the G on the downbeat or on "room")
Ten more years and a waiting room
At half past one
And the doctor said come in and meet your son
His knees went weak
When he saw his wife
She was smiling as she said he's got your eyes
And as she slept he held her tight
His mind went back to that first night
(Chorus)
G D Em C (don't do the ringing thing here just go straight into the Am)
AmHe walked her tGhrough the best days of her Dlife
AmSixty years togGether and he Cnever left her Dside
A nursing home
At eighty-five
And the doctor said it could be her last night
And the nurse said Oh
Should we tell him now
Or should he wait until the morning to find out
When they checked her room that night
He was laying by her side
Oh he was walking her home
And holding her hand
Oh the way she smiled when he said this is not the end
And just for a while they were eighteen
And she was still more beautiful to him than anything
He was walking her home
He was walking her home
Looking back
He sees it all
It was her first date the night he came to call
End on G
