---------

Album: Welcome To The Cruel World
Tabbed by: Briac Pilpre <briac@orbital.fr>

Tuning : D B C F A D (1 tone lower than standard tuning)
Tempo: about 65


A really easy, yet beautiful song. The timing is the most difficult
thing in this song. There might be some errors, especially in the bridge,
but it sounds really close...
The 'e' and 's' below the tabs represent eighth and sixteenth notes.
'h' means hammer-on.

Lyrics:

Intro

Verse:
Oh no
Here comes that sun again
That means another day
Without you my friend
And it hurts me
To look into the mirror at myself
And it hurts even more
To have to be with somebody else

Chorus:
And it's so hard to do
And so easy to say
But sometimes
Sometimes you just have to walk away
Walk away

Verse:
With so many people
To love in my life
Why do I worry
About one
But you put the happy
In my ness
You put the good times
Into my fun

Chorus:
And it's so hard to do
And so easy to say
But sometimes
Sometimes you just have to walk away
Walk away
And head for the door

Bridge:
We've tried the goodbye
So many days
We walk in the same direction
So that we could never stray
They say if you love somebody
Than you have got to set them free
But I would rather be locked to you
Than live in this pain and misery

Verse:
They say time will
Make all this go away
But it's time that has taken my tomorrows
And turned them into yesterdays
And once again that rising sun
Is droppin' on down
And once again you my friend
Are nowhere to be found

Chorus:
And it's so hard to do
And so easy to say
But sometimes
Sometimes you just have to walk away
Walk away
And head for the door
You just walk away
Walk away
