    Bb/C F Bb/C F C Bb Am Bb
  • Well I'm out here on my own following the stars
    C A/C# Dm C Bb
    Asking on my knees for some direction, please,
  • Bb/C F Bb C F
    And, God, you know it's hard
    Cause I'm such a stubborn man, Lord, I'm stubborn as a mule
  • But even though I struggle some, I belive a change will come
    Now, here, you love a fool
     
  • Am7 Bb
    I see a road and a flash of lightning
    Gm7 Bb/C
  • Let me tell you it's frightning
     
    Dm C Bb F
  • Is anybody there? Oh, I need somebody tonight
    Dm C Gm F/A Bb C
    To care- I'm feeling alone and it just don't seem right
  • Dm C Bb F
    Is anybody there? Oh, I need somebody to be
    Eb/Bb Dm/A
  • To know that I'm good enough for love
    Bb/C F
    To walk beside me
  •  
    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
     
    x2

    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....
