                          A Walk on the Wild Side of Life

                                         written by: Wayne P. Walker

                            performed by David Ball on "Thinkin' Problem"

              C            G
C.You're not gone, really gone
             C                G
  You'll be back, I know you will
               C        G
  You're just taking a walk
          D            C
  On the wild side of life

         G
1.In my house are many heartaches
         C
  Loneliness is all around
             D
  Since you left for the life
      G
  Of nights out on the town

            G
  I've got memories by the dozen
         C
  But I can't throw one away
         D
  Everything's just like you left it
        G
  And that's how it's gonna stay


repeat chorus


2.'til the bright lights lose their glamour
  And the music of its charm
  Until you tire of all the honky tonks
  That took you from my arms

  This old house of many heartaches
  Holds a love enough for two
  And everything's just like you left it
  Waiting here for you

repeat chorus

                                                                 C
