[Verse 1]
           Gm                    C#dim7
Without my walking stick, I'd go insane
        D7                                       Gm
I can't look my best I feel undressed without my cane.
                                          C#dim7
Must have my walking stick, 'cause it may rain
        D7                                 Gm
When it pours can't be outdoors without my cane.
 
[Chorus]
     Cm
If I ever left my house, without my walking stick,
        Gm                  A                 D7
Well it would be something, I could never explain;
Gm                                          C#dim7
Oh the thing that makes me click, on lovers lane,
             D7                                 Gm
Would go for naught if I were caught without my cane.

If I ever left my house, without my walking stick,

Would go for naught if I were caught without my cane.
