Line In The Dust

Intro:
| A C Em A | 2x

Verse:
A
I'm walking outside
               C
And I see you arrive
                    Em
I say let's go for a ride
                    G
And have a good old time, whoa
             A
I'm saving up lies
                         C
Or just stay quiet every time
                       Em
While you talkin' your line
                G
Keep everything fine, whoa, fine


Pre Chorus:
A
Between us, I can see
C
Things are not what they used to be
Em
My old friend changed
         G
Or maybe it was me
A
Things get so complicated
C
Jokes made, friendships dissipated
Em
Long silence but I speak
    G
Now so belated


Chorus:
       A
I say, hey, wait a minute
C
What's that you said?
Em                                A
I'm Not so sure that I heard you right
          A
Whoa, oh, hey, wait a minute
C
Oh, say that again
Em
You're in the dust
                        A
Drawing a long straight line


Interlude:
A C Em A


Verse:
A
We'd be playing outside
                   C
We'd swing on the swings
                  Em
Shared most everything
                   G
Sit there and even sing
              A
Now I sit and wonder
                      C
Why it's a friendship charade
                       Em
Looking for fights all day
                G
I don't want to play, whoa


Pre Chorus:
          A
But I do, here we go
               C
I fire off another lame remark
You're in the dark
Em
No bite, just your bark
                 G
But it leaves a painful mark
    A
Oh, painful mark on your soul
C
Takes its toll
                Em
I might as well fold
I've got my courage up
      G
Gonna roll low


Chorus:
       A
I say, hey, wait a minute
C
What's that you said?
Em                                A
I'm Not so sure that I heard you right
          A
Whoa, oh, hey, wait a minute
C
Oh, say that again
Em
You're in the dust
                        A
Drawing a long straight line


Interlude:
| A C Em A | 2x


Verse:
A
We talk and talk
              C
But you never see
                     Em
Unreconstructed defiantly
My old friend changed
            G
Or maybe it was me
       A
Things get so complicated
C
Jokes made, friendships dissipated
Em
I've stayed quiet
                 G
So we don't get alienated


Chorus:
       A
I say, hey, wait a minute
C
What's that you said?
Em                                A
I'm Not so sure that I heard you right
          A
Whoa, oh, hey, wait a minute
C
Oh, say that again
Em
You're in the dust
                        A
Drawing a long straight line
