Walking the Cow
Daniel Johnston
Hi, How Are You, 1983
Key: C
 
 
[Verse 1]
 
C          Am
Trying to remember
C                              Am
But my feelings can't know for sure
Dm
Try to reach out
          C      Am
But it's gone
 
 
[Chorus]
 
      C             Am
Lucky stars in your eyes 
Dm                C
I am walking the cow 
 
 
[Bridge]
 
Dm                         Am   Em
I really don't know how I came here
Dm                            Am      Em
I really don't know why I am staying here 
Dm        G                 C
Oh-oh-oh, I am walking the cow 
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
C                  Am
Tried to point my finger
C                               Am
But the wind keeps blowing me around
Dm
In circles
   C       Am
Circles
 
 
[Chorus]
 
      C             Am
Lucky stars in your eyes 
Dm                C
I am walking the cow 
 
 
[Bridge 2]
 
Dm                          Am      Em
I really don't know what I have to fear
Dm                         Am      Em
I really don't know why I have to care
Dm        G                 C
Oh-oh-oh, I am walking the cow

I believe you're right. I guess on the piano Daniel was playing the chord: C E A, which (depening on the bass notes) is either a C6 or an A minor chord.

Are you sure that Am isn't just a C6? I could be wrong but I think that's what it is.
