E Am
i keep my eyes wide open all the time
E Am
i keep a close watch on this heart of mine
Dm Am
i keep the ends out for the tie that binds
E Am
because you’re mine , i walk the line

E Am
i find it very , very easy to be true
E Am
i find myself alone when each day is through
Dm Am
yes , i’ll admit i’m a fool for you
E Am
because you’re mine , i walk the line

E Am
as sure as night is dark and day is light
E Am
i keep you on my mind both day and night
Dm Am
and happiness i’ve known proves that it’s right
E Am
because you’re mine , i walk the line
E Am
because you’re mine , i walk the line
E Am
because you’re mine , i walk the line

E Am
you keep me on your side , yeah
E Am
for love that i can’t hide
E Am
i’d even try to turn the tide , yeah
E Am
oh , woah , i walk the line
