Story behind the song
I wrote the song to tell my two sons to walk tall and be strong. Go and do the things you want to while you are young and be strong.
Lyrics
Walk Tall, Be Strong-by Nick Turner June 2007
A
A funny kind of feeling makes you crazy
E
A sunny kind of evening makes you sad
D F//m
If the world is about believing, then the storeys nearly found
Bm Bm
Life is what you make it, try your best not to break it
E
And you’ll be sound
A Chorus Bm
Walk tall, walk proud,
D E
Keep your head up in the sky and shout aloud
A Bm
and there’s the stars, in your eyes
E
work the land, your hands , your body, tell no lies
A Bm
live your life, make it full
Bm
tell your mum your dad you love them
Bm E
go and do the things you want to, while your young
A
and be strong
A
Living life, at such a fever, can be crazy
E
Chasing sunbeams and the starlight takes your time,
D
For the world, is there, believe me,
F//m
It’s all been done before
Bm
Take your SM58, and treat it just like your mate,
Bm E
And you’ll always have the where with all, not to fall
