Mr. Walker, It's All Over Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]I l[G]eft G[D]ard[Am]en Ci[D]ty[G], Kansas
with a ticket and a yen to see New York.
I type [C]80 words a minute,
so your corporation let me go to work.
I bring [D]paperclips and coffee,
even help you dodge a domineering wife
But Mr. Walker, it's all over,
I don't like the New York secretary's [G]life
[D]In this bui[G]lding there's a crowd of guys
with old familiar thoughts
up on their minds
And that's a [C]lot of hands reachin' out
to grab the things that I consider mine
And [D]the president pursues me
even though he's old
and a hair a -turnin' white
But Mr. Walker, it's all over,
I don't like the New York
secretary's [G]life[Eb]
There's a [Ab]flat in Greenwich Village
that I took
because the [Db]subway wasn't [Abm]far[Ab]
But a [Db]trumpet player's upstairs
and below me
there's a jump and a whole night bar
An[Eb]d to frost a bit of cake
I have to share the place with
bugs and big old mice
Oh, Mr. Walker, it's all [D]over,
[Eb]I don't like the New York
secretary's [Ab]life[E]
Your sweet[A]heart in personnel said
I should give her written notice like the rest
I wrote [D]goodbye with my brightest lipstick
right across her big expensive desk
You'd better [E]call the times and tell them
Put your wanted ad right
back in classified
Cause, Mr. Walker, it's all over
I don't like the New York
secret[A]ary's [F]life
There's a grey[Bb]hound at the station
And a mom at her home
with a welcome arms for me.
Garden [Eb]City's looking better
every minute now
since I have learned to [Bb]see.
And the [F]boy next door don't know it,
but come June he's gonna
gain himself a wife.
Oh, Mr. Walker, it's all over,
I don't [F]like the New York
secret[Bb]ary's life
Mr. [F]Walker, it's all over,
I don't like the New York secretary's [Bb]life
