Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
All  these kinds of places make it seem  like it's been ages
 And tomorrow's  sun and buildings scrape the sky
 I love  this country dearly, I can feel  the ladder clearly
 But I never  thought I'd be alone to try
Once  I was outside Penn station, selling  red and white carnations
 We were still alone, my wife and I
 Before  we married, saved my money, brought  my dear wife over
 Now I work  to bring my family stateside
 Got off  the boat, they stayed  a while then scattered  'cross the coast
Once  a year I'll see  them for a week  or so at most
 I took a walk  (Take a walk  x3)  take a walk, ohh-ohh-ohh-ohh
 I took a walk  (Take a walk  x3)  take a walk, ohh-ohh-ohh-ohh
Practice  isn't perfect but the market  cuts a loss
 I remind  myself that times could be much worse
 My wife  won't ask me questions, there's  not so much to ask
 And she'll never flaunt  around an empty purse
Once  my mother-in-law came just  to stay a couple nights
 And decided  she would stay the rest of her life
 I watch  my little children play some boardgame  in the kitchen
 And I sit  and pray they never feel my strife
 But then  my partner called  to say the pension  funds were gone
 He made  some bad investments,  now the accounts  are overdrawn
 I took a walk  (Take a walk  x3)  take a walk, ohh-ohh-ohh-ohh
 I took a walk  (Take a walk  x3)  take a walk, ohh-ohh-ohh-ohh
 "Honey,  it's your son"  I think I borrowed  just too much
 We had taxes,  we had bills,  we had a lifestyle  to front
 And tonight  I swear I'll come  home and we'll make  love like we're young
 Tomorrow,  you'll cook dinner  for the neighbors  and their kids
 We can rip  apart the socialists  and all  their damn taxes
 You see  I am no criminal,  I'm down  on both bad knees
 I'm just  too much a coward  to admit  when I'm in need
 I took a walk  (Take a walk  x3)  take a walk, ohh-ohh-ohh-ohh
 I took a walk  (Take a walk  x3)  take a walk, ohh-ohh-ohh-ohh
 (Repeat chorus x3)
