Ricky Van Shelton - Keep It Between The Lines guitar chord

Keep it Between the Lines

E A

He was sitting beside me in the passenger seat,

E

as we looked out the windsheild,

B7

down the quiet little street,

E A

he was smiling so proudly, as he gave me the key,

E B7

but inside I knew he was as nervous as me,

E

he said, I'm right her beside you,

A Dbm

and your gonna do fine, all you gotta do is,

B7 E Esus E

"Keep it Between the Lines"

Chorus

A B7 E

Cause it's a long narrow road,

A B7 Dbm

and only the good Lord knows,

A

where it leads in the end,

F#m B7

but you got to begin,

A B7 E

so keep your hands on the wheel,

A B7 Dbm

believe in the things that are real,

A

and take your time, and,

F#m B7 E Esus E

"Keep it between the lines"

Verse:

E A

Well I was sitting in my chair trying to sneak in a look

E B7

at him lying on the floor with his coloring books,

E A

and then he caught me watching, and he climbed on my knee,

E B7

said, daddy, oh daddy, would you do one with me,

E A

then I hugged him so tightly, as we turned the page,

E B7

said I haven't done this since I was your age,

E A

he said, I'm right here beside you and your gonna do fine,

Dbm B7 E Esus E

Daddy, all you gotta do is, "Keep it Between the Lines"

E A

So we finished the picture, and I put him to bed,

E B7

got down on my knees, and I bowed my head,

E A

and I said, Father, oh Father, I feel so alone,

E B7

are you sure I can raise him, with his momma gone,

E A

then the answer came back, so gentle and low,

E B7

in the words of my daddy, from so long ago,

E A

he said, I'm right here beside you and your gonna do fine,

Dbm B7 E Esus E

all you gotta do is, "Keep it Between the Lines"

Chorus:

A B7 E

Cause it's a long narrow road,

A B7 Dbm

and only the good Lord knows,

A

where it leads in the end,

F#m B7

but you got to begin,

A B7 E

so keep your hands on the wheel,

A B7 Dbm

believe in the things that are real,

A

and take your time, and,

F#m B7 E Esus E

"Keep it Between the Lines"

A

Yes, take your time, and,

F#m B7 E Esus E B7 E

"Keep it Between the Lines"
