        << Back to Johnny Cash Song List
Version 1
            There is a lot of different finger settings going on in this song.
It sounds good to change between x-1-3-1-3-4 and x-1-3-1-3-1 on the Bb7

Well i went down to the store, i got some brand new shoes
  F
I told them make the leather tough i gotta' walk the blues
[Chorus]
Bb7                                           F
Walkin' the blues, i'm walkin' the blues all day, all day
            C7                                      F
I'm wearin' out my shoes but i'm walkin' the blues away

Well my baby's got a heart like the cold north wind,
     F
i'll walk until i find her, bring her back again
