[Verse 1]
         B7                           E
I keep a close watch on this heart of mine
          B7                     E
I keep my eyes wide open all the time
           A                         E
I keep the ends out for the tie that binds
               B7               E     A
Because you're mine, I walk the line
 
[Verse 2]
          E                     A
I find it very, very easy to be true
       E                             A
I find myself alone when each day is through
           D                   A
Yes, I'll admit I'm a fool for you
               E                A      D
Because you're mine, I walk the line
 
[Verse 3]
           A                        D
As sure as night is dark and day is light
           A                       D
I keep you on my mind both day and night
         G                                D
And happiness I've known proves that it's right

Because you're mine, I walk the line
 
[Verse 4]
             E                      A
You've got a way to keep me on your side
            E                           A
You give me cause for love that I can't hide
          D                             A
For you I know I'd even try to turn the tide
               E                A      E
Because you're mine, I walk the line
 
[Verse 5]
         B7                           E
I keep a close watch on this heart of mine
          B7                     E
I keep my eyes wide open all the time
           A                         E
I keep the ends out for the tie that binds
               B7               E     A
Because you're mine, I walk the line

I keep my eyes wide open all the time

Because you're mine, I walk the line

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

As sure as night is dark and day is light
I 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 try to turn the tide
Because you're mine, I walk the line

I keep a close watch on this heart of mine
I keep my eyes wide open all the time
I keep the ends out for the tie that binds

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

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

As sure as night is dark and day is light
I 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 try to turn the tide
Because you're mine, I walk the line

I keep a close watch on this heart of mine
I keep my eyes wide open all the time
I keep the ends out for the tie that binds
