Walls Chords

[Intro]
D
 
[Verse 1]
         D          A             D     A  Bm
I'm not ashamed to say that I've loved you well,
         E                  A  G
I'm not ashamed to let you know,
     D                 Bm
I'm just a name that's all,
D                    Bm
Scratched upon your wall,
                Em                A
You've used it well but what the hell,
                       D
That's what walls are for.
 
[Verse 2]
         D           A           D    A     Bm
I'm not ashamed to listen to the fast falling rain,
         E              A   G
In the morning upon my window,
     D             Bm
I'm not afraid to cry,
     D             Bm
I'm not afraid to try,
             Em         A
To be your friend once again,
                               D
Cause that's what friends are for.
 
[Chorus 1]
            F#m   Bm              E             A
Friends are for sorting out the hangups that we hide,
          F#m   Bm               E              A  G
Walls are for shutting out the love we feel inside.
 
[Verse 3]
         D      A             D   A    Bm
I'm not ashmed no to talk it over once again,
       E                A  G
To rearrange my vocabulary,
    D                Bm
But I can't seem to find,
     D                   Bm
Any words to change your mind,
           Em              A
Because I left them all behind,
                       D
That's what words are for.
 
[Interlude]
A  D  Bm  Em  A  D
 
[Chorus 2]
          F#m  Bm             E                      A
Words are for explaining the mistakes we might have made,
          F#m    Bm                  E              A  G
Names are for calling when there's nothing left to say.
 
[Verse 4]
           D        A              D    A   Bm
I'm not ashamed,to say that I've loved you well,
           E                A  G
I'm not ashamed, and yet I know,
      D                  Bm
I'm just a name, that's all,
D                     Bm
Scratched upon your wall,
                Em                 A  A7
You've used it well but what the hell,
                       D
That's what walls are for.

E   A   D
 
[Verse 5]
           D           A           D    A     Bm
I'm not ashamed of wearing out my old grey socks,
         E               A   G
Chasing you around the backwoods,
     D              Bm
I'm not ashamed to darn,
         D                  Bm
Nor too proud to find some yarn,
            Em        A
To sew them up once again,
                             D
Cause that's what socks are for.
