E7                           A
I keep a close watch on this heart of mine
          E7                     A
I keep my eyes wide open all the time.
            D                         A
I keep the ends out for the tie that binds
               E7                A        G
Because you're mine, I walk the line

           D                     G
I find it very, very easy to be true
           D                          G
I find myself alone when each day is through
            C                       G
Yes, I'll admit that I'm a fool for you
               D                 G    F
Because you're mine, I walk the line

[Verse]
            C                       F
As sure as night is dark and day is light
           C                       F
I keep you on my mind both day and night
          Bb                               F
And happiness I've known proves that it's right
               C                F     D   E
Because you're mine, I walk the line

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