(Either Johnny or his guitarist continues the two-note shuffle while the chords are):
Verse 1
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
(Then walk up to A)

A|-------0-|
E|-0-2-4---|
Verse 2
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
(Then walk up to D)

A|-0-2-4---|

Verse 3
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
(Back down to A)

A|---4-2-0-|

Verse 4
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
(And back to E again)

E|---4-2-0-|
Verse 5
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
