Sometimes the Line Walks You Chords & Lyrics by Murder By Death
Sometimes the Line Walks You
guitar chords lyrics
This is pretty much what it sounds like to me, seems to sound better to play
more chords between the basic structure before the first chorus. Either way
you can tweak it a bit and it still sounds ok. Enjoy.

Dm
I've taken a hit or two
Dm
I've given quite a few
Bb A Gm Dm A
I swing my fists and the cities all fall
Dm
I've broken a law or two
Dm
I reckon I only missed a few
Bb A Gm Dm A
I watch these long days pass through the bars I curse the brass
Bb
I've had a cracked rib or two
A
I guess I've busted more
Bb A
I've laid a couple out on the coolin' board
Bb A Gm
Sometimes you walk the line
A Dm
And sometimes it walks you
Bb A
You get quick to anger
Dm Gm A
Quick to put a knife up to another man's throat
Bb A Gm A Dm
I cannot still the hell that's in these hands
Dm
When they came to take me in
Dm
I didn't fight just let them win
Bb Gm A
Whoa oh whoa oh whoa oh
Dm
A man died in my cell
Dm
Damn the guards sure gave me hell
Bb Gm A
Whoa oh whoa oh whoa oh
Dm
I'd love to see them horsemen ride
Dm
So law and order stand aside
Bb Gm A
Whoa oh whoa oh whoa oh
Dm
Oh this woman and gin, woman and gin
Dm
Go together like the devil and sin
Bb Gm
Her legs are like wheat her lips are like wine
A
Gonna meet her at the end of the county line
Bb
JAILBREAK
Bb A Gm
JAILBREAK
A Dm
Tonight bring on the floodlights
Dm (vamp)
Boys! (Yeah!) Fetch the shovel!
Boys! (Yeah!) Post the lookout!
Coppers! You'll never catch us! (That's right!)
Ladies, we're coming home tonite!
Dm
Cause in a few more yards we'll reach the line
Bb A Dm
And meet up with a friend of mine
Dm
The dogs are comin' swift and mean
Bb Gm A
But I'm hungrier than they have ever been
Bb
JAILBREAK
Bb A Gm
JAILBREAK
Gm A Dm
Tonight bring on the floodlights
