Verse One:
 
          B5               E
Looking back, He sees it all
       B5                   C#5                E
It was her first date the night he came to call
             B5                      E
Her dad said son, have her home on time
    B5               C#5           E
And promise me you'll never leave her side...
C#5          D#5             E
He took her to a show in town
C#5         D#5                E
And he was ten feet off the ground

Chorus:
                    B5
He was walking her home
                   E
And holding her hand
                B5                      C#5                 E
All the way she smiled and stole the breath right out of him
               B5 
Down That old road
                   E
With the stars up above
              B5
He remembered where he was
      C#5               E
The night he fell in love
                   B5     C#5     E � LET RING    
He was walking her home   

Verse 2:
                                 B5
Ten more years in the waiting room
               E
At half past one 
            B5           C#5               E
And the doctor said come in and meet your son
                 B5
His knees went weak
                E
When he saw his wife
           B5              C#5                E
She was smiling when she said he�s got your eyes 
C#5         D#5               E                
And as she slept he held her tight
C#5            D#5                 E             
His mind went back to that first night

Chorus:
                    B5
He was walking her home
                   E
And holding her hand
                B5                      C#5                 E
All the way she smiled and stole the breath right out of him
               B5 
Down That old road
                   E
With the stars up above
              B5
He remembered where he was
      C#5               E
The night he fell in love
                   B5     C#5     E     
He was walking her home   



Bridge:
 E                         C#5                  B5    
He walked her through the best years of her life
 E           C#5                  B
Sixty years together and he never left her side

Verse 3:
          B5                E
A nursing home, at eighty-five
        B5               C#5                E
And the doctor said it could be her last night
                   B5                        E
And the nurse said Oh, Should we tell him now
              B5              C#5           E
Or should he wait until the morning to find out
C#5            D#5                     E
But when they checked her room that night
C#5     D#5           E
He was laying by her side

Chorus:
                    B5
He was walking her home
                 E
And holding her hand
               B5                     C#5                E
Oh the way she smiled when he said this is not the end
                 B5 
And just for a while
              E
They were eighteen
                   B5
She was still more beautiful
   C#5          E 
To him than anything
   
[For next part just play B-C#5-D#5-B  four times - let last B ring]
               
He was walking her home
                   
He was walking her home


          B5               E
Looking back, He sees it all
       B5                C#5                E(ring)
It was her first date the night he came to call
