I Walk the Line (Revisited) Chords & Lyrics by Rodney Crowell
I Walk the Line (Revisited)
guitar chords lyrics
Intro: G
G
I'm back on board that '49 Ford in 1956
D
Long before the sun came up way out in the sticks
G
The headlights showed a two-rut road
C9
Way back up in the pines
G D
First time I heard Johnny Cash
G
'Sing I Walk the Line'
G
I got my thrill behind the wheel upon my daddies lap
D
Grandpa rode co-pilot with a flashlight and a map
G
Cane pole out the window
C9
It was in the summer time
G D
First time I heard Johnny Cash
G G7
Sing 'I Walk the Line'
Chorus 1:
C
I keep a close watch on this heart of mine
G
I keep my eyes wide open all the time
C
I keep the ends out for the tie that binds
D7
Because you're mine
G
I walk the line
G
I never will forget that day, I know the time and place
D
Sounded like the whole thing came right down from outer space
G
I still can see those headlights
C9
and that dashboard in my mind
G D
First time I heard Johnny Cash
G G7
sing I walk the line
Chorus 2:
C
I find it very very easy to be true
G
I find myself alone when each day is through
C
Yes I'll admit that I'm a fool for you
D7
Because you're mine
G
I walk the line
G
All these long years later it's still music to my ears
D
I swear it sounds as good right now as anything I hear
G
I've seen the Mona Lisa
C9
I've heard Shakespeare read' real fine
G D
Just like hearing Johnny Cash
G G7
Sing 'I Walk the Line'
Chorus 3:
C
As sure as night is dark and day is light
G
I keep you on my mind both day and night
C
And happiness that I've known proves that it's right
D7
Because you're mine
G
I walk the line
D7
Because you're mine
C D G
I walk the line
