An interesting way to end the song is with the F//C//F//C// I've used that ended 
many times and I've also used that as a segue into other songs as well.  As a jam 
into some Grateful Dead tunes it works quite well.  Have fun with it!!

F C G Am7

I'm writing you this letter from some old hotel

F C G Am7

I can feel the distance between us

F C G Am7

From the Spanish Steps to the Liberty Bell

F C G Am7 F C G Am7

(2X)

I know the angels have seen us... seen us, baby

F C G Am7

They see you down on Seventh Avenue,

F C G Am7

While you're just hanging by a thread

F C G Am7

And I'm sitting in a lonely room without a view,

F C G Am7

Wishing I was there with you instead

(CHORUS 1)

F C G Am7

Won't you walk through this world with me

F C G Am7

Walk through this world.

F C G Am7

Over the miles of mystery,

Dm7 Am7 F6 C F6 C

Walk through this world with me.

F C G Am7

I'm staring out across the rooftops, baby.

F C G Am7

I've seen the writing on the wall.

F C G Am7

Heard a little bit of thunder, at the seventh wonder,

F C G Am7

but everything is bound to rise and fall, that's all

(CHORUS 2)

F C G Am7

Walk through this world with me

F C G Am7

Walk through the world.

F C G Am7

Over the mountains and the shining sea,

Dm7 Am7 F6 C F6 C F6 C

Walk through this world with me... Walk on... Walk on, Walk on... Yeah...

Let me get this ringing out of my ears,

F C G Am7

Let me get these stars out of my eyes.

F C G Am7

'Cause I just want to look back over all the years

F C G Am7

with you right there standing by my side. Could you just...

F C G Am7

Won't you walk through this world with me

F C G Am7

Walk through this world.

F C G Am7

Over the miles of mystery,

Dm7 Am7 F6 C F6 C

Walk through this world with me.
