Line in the Dust Bruce Hornsby
Capo 3
Intro:
| A C Em A | 2x
Verse:
[A]I'm walking outside
And I see you a[C]rrive
I say let's go for a[Em] ride
And have a good old [G]time, whoa
I'm saving up[A] lies
Or just stay quiet every [C]time
While you talkin' your [Em]line
Keep everything [G]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
Or maybe [G]it was me
[A]Things get so complicated
[C]Jokes made, friendships dissipated
[Em]Long silence but I speak
Now [G]so belated
Chorus:
I say, [A]hey, wait a minute
[C]What's that you said?
[Em]I'm Not so sure that I heard you r[A]ight
Whoa, oh, [A]hey, wait a minute
[C]Oh, say that again
[Em]You're in the dust
Drawing a long straight [A]line
Interlude:
[A] [C] [Em] [A]
Verse:
[A]We'd be playing outside
We'd swing on the s[C]wings
Shared most everyt[Em]hing
Sit there and even [G]sing
Now I sit and [A]wonder
Why it's a friendship [C]charade
Looking for fights all [Em]day
I don't want to [G]play, whoa
Pre Chorus:
But I do, [A]here we go
I fire off anot[C]her lame remark
You're in the dark
[Em]No bite, just your bark
But it leaves a p[G]ainful mark
Oh, [A]painful mark on your soul
[C]Takes its toll
I might as well [Em]fold
I've got my courage up
Gonna [G]roll low
Chorus:
I say, [A]hey, wait a minute
[C]What's that you said?
[Em]I'm Not so sure that I heard you r[A]ight
Whoa, oh, [A]hey, wait a minute
[C]Oh, say that again
[Em]You're in the dust
Drawing a long straight [A]line
Interlude:
| A C Em A | 2x
Verse:
[A]We talk and talk
But you never [C]see
Unreconstructed defia[Em]ntly
My old friend changed
Or maybe it [G]was me
Things [A]get so complicated
[C]Jokes made, friendships dissipated
[Em]I've stayed quiet
So we don't get a[G]lienated
Chorus:
I say, [A]hey, wait a minute
[C]What's that you said?
[Em]I'm Not so sure that I heard you r[A]ight
Whoa, oh, [A]hey, wait a minute
[C]Oh, say that again
[Em]You're in the dust
Drawing a long straight [A]line
| A C Em A | repeat till end
