Python language totally depends on indentation.You didn't give any indentation in your code.So you should give indentation in your code.You should follow this link for indentation.

Structuring with Indentation.

import os
from fnmatch import fnmatch

root = 'Directory'

for path, subdirs, file in os.walk(root):
    for files in file : 
        with open(files) as f:
            contents = f.read()
            if 'Search_string' in contents:
                print os.path.join(path, files)
