F#
I went out walking through streets paved with gold
 B
Lifted some stones, saw the skin and bones
     F#
of a city without a soul
F#
I went out walking under an atomic sky,
            B
where the ground won't turn and the rain it burns
         F#
like the tears when I said goodbye

Chorus:
D#m                B
Yeah, I went with nothing
F#                          C#
Nothing but the thought of you
       D#m      B C# F#
I went wandering

I went drifting through the capitals of tin
Where men can't walk or freely talk
And sons turn their fathers in
I stopped outside a church house
Where the citizens like to sit
They say they want the kingdom
But they don't want God in it

Chorus:
I went with nothing, but the
thought you'd be there too
Looking for you

B
I went out there in
F#
search of experience:
    D#m               B
to taste and to touch and to feel as much
F#          C#               D#m B C# F#
As a man can before he repents

I went out there in search of experience
To taste and to touch and to feel as much
As a man can before he repents
I went out searching, looking for one good man
A spirit who would not bend or break
Who would sit at his father's right hand
I went out walking with a bible and a gun
The word of God lay heavy on my heart
I was sure I was the one

Chorus:
Yeah, I left with nothing
but the thought you'd be there too
Looking for you

Yeah, I left with nothing
nothing but the thought of you
I went wandering
