I Walk the Line

Carter Style w/ Alternating Baselines and Walk-downs

C        G7                           C
I keep a close watch on this heart of mine
          G7                     C
I keep my eyes wide open all the time
           F                         C
I keep the ends out for the tie that binds
             G                C
Because your mine, I walk the line


I find it very very easy to be true
I find myself alone when each day’s through
Yes I’ll admit that I’m a fool for you
Because your mine, I walk the line

As sure as night is dark and day is light
I’ll keep you on my mind both day and night.
And Happiness I’ve known proves that it’s right
Because you’re mine, I walk the line.

You’ve got a way, to keep me on your side.
You give me cause for love that I can’t hide
For you I know I’d even turn the tide
Because you’re mine, I walk the line.
