Wallet Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[C]

[Verse 1]
[C]I found a wallet
I found a wallet
Inside were pictures of your [Fm]small family
[F]You were so [Dm]youn[F]g
[C]Your hai[F]r dark brown
[Dm]You had [F]been born in nineteen fifty-three

[Verse 2]
[F]Your [C]Your winter birth[F]day
Was [C]stamped on [F]the plastic
[C]Of a license [Bb]so re[Fm] cently exp[F]ired
[Dm]I was so[F] tired
[C]As I wal[F]ked through my door
I [Dm]laid all the con[F]tents of
your wallet on the floor

[Verse 3]
And [C]like a holy rel[F]ic[C]
Or a mystery [F]novel
[C]I thumbed them in the [F]dim light
[C]Searching for a [F]clue
A block[Dm]buster card
An [F]old stick [Dm]of juicy fruit
A [F]crumpled re[Dm]ceipt
From a [G]pair of leather boots

[Verse 4]
[C]I have no w[F]allet
[C]I have no wal[Dm] let
I [C]keep my cards to[Ab]gether with
[Fm]a blue rubber [F]band
And with a free hand
I search in my pockets

[Verse 5]
For pieces of, pieces of paper and change
[C]I'll take your wallet
To my local blockbuster
They'll find your number
In their computer
You'll never know me
I'll never know you
But you'll be so happy
When they call you up
