[Verse 1]
As EmI walked out tonight in the mystic garden
The Emwounded flowers were dangling from the vines Em7 Em6
I was Am7passing by yon cool and crystal fountain
Em Someone hit me from behind Em7 Em6
Ain't Emtalkin', just walkin' Em7 Em6
EmThrough this Am7weary world of Emwoe
Heart Emburnin', still yearnin'Em7 Em6
No Bsus4one on Dsus2earth would ever Emknow
[Verse 2]
They say Emprayer has the power to help
So pray from the Emmother
In the Emhuman heart an evil spirit can dwell
I'm trying to Am7love my neighbor and do good unto others
But oh, Emmother, things ain't going well
Ain't Emtalkin', just walkin' Em7 Em6
I'll Emburn that bridge beAm7fore you get acEmross
Heart Emburnin', still yearnin' Em7 Em6
There'll be Bsus4no mercy for Dsus2you once you've Emlost
[Verse 3]
Now I'm Emall worn out by weepin'
My Emeyes are full of tears, my lips are dry
If I Am7catch my opponents ever sleepin'
I'll just Emslaughter them where they lie
Ain't Emtalkin', just walkin' Em7 Em6
EmThrough the world mysAm7terious and Emvague Em7 Em6
Heart Emburnin', stillEm7 yeaEm6rnin'
Bsus4Walking through the Dsus2cities of the Emplague
[Interlude]
| Em | Em | Em | Em |
[Verse 4]
Well, the Emwhole world is filled with speculation
The Emwhole wide world which people say is round
They will Am7tear your mind away from contemplation
They will Emjump on your misfortune when you're down
Ain't Emtalkin', just walkin'Em7 Em6
Eatin' Emhog-eyed greaseAm7 in a hog-eyed Emtown
Heart Emburnin' – still yearnin'
SomeBsus4day you'll be Dsus2glad to have me aEmround
[Interlude]
| Em | Em | Em | Em |
[Verse 5]
They will Emcrush you with wealth and power
Every Emwaking moment you could crack
I'll make the Am7most of one last extra hour
I'll aEmvenge my father's death then I'll step back
Ain't Emtalkin', just walkin' Em7 Em6
EmHand me Am7down my walkin' Emcane
Heart Emburnin', still yearnin'
Got to Bsus4get you out of my Dsus2miserable Embrain
[Interlude]
| Em | Em | Em | Em |
[Verse 6]
All my Emloyal and my much-loved companions
They apEmprove of me and share my code
I pracAm7tice a faith that's been long abandoned
Ain't no Emaltars on this long and lonesome road Em7 Em6
Ain't Emtalkin', just walkin' Em7 Em6
My Emmule is sick, my horse is blind
Heart Emburnin', still yearnin'
Bsus4Thinkin' 'bout that Dsus2gal I left beEmhind
[Verse 7]
Well, it's Embright in the heavens and the wheels are flyin'
EmFame and honor never seem to fade Em7 Em6
The Am7fire gone out but the light is never dyin'
Who says EmI can't get heavenly aid?
Ain't Emtalkin', just walkin' Em7 Em6
EmCarryin' a Am7dead man's Emshield
Heart Emburnin', still yearnin'
Bsus4Walkin' with a Dsus2toothache in my Emheel
[Verse 8]
The Emsufferin' is unending
Every Emnook and cranny has its tears
I'm not Am7playing, I'm not pretending
I'm not Emnursin' any superfluous fears
Ain't Emtalkin', just walkin' Em7 Em6
EmWalkin' ever Am7since the other Emnight
Heart Emburnin', still yearnin'
Bsus4Walkin' 'til I'mDsus2 clean out of Emsight
[Interlude]
| Em | Em | Em | Em |
| Em | Em | Em Bm | Em |
[Verse 9]
Em As I walked out in the mystic garden
On a Emhot summer day, a hot summer lawn
ExAm7cuse me, ma'am, I beg your pardon
There's Emno one here, the gardener is gone Em7 Em6
Ain't Emtalkin', just walkin' Em7 Em6
EmUp the road, aAm7round the Embend
Heart Emburnin', still yearnin'
In the Bsus4last outbackDsus2 at the world's Emend
