I Walk the Line (revisited) 
By Rodney Crowell 
 
[G] 
I'm back on board that 49-40, 1956 
Long before the sun came up [D] way out in the sticks 
[G] The headlights showed a two-rut road 
Way back up in the [C9] pines 
[G] First time I heard [D] Johny Cash 
'Sing I Walk the [G] Line' 
 
I got my thrill behind the wheel upon my daddies lap 
Grandpa rode co-pilot with a [D] flashlight and a map 
[G] Cane pole out the window 
It was in the summer [C9] time 
[G] First time I heard [D] Johny Cash 
Sing 'I Walk the [G] Line' [G7] 
 
Chorus I 
I keep a [C] close watch on this heart of mine 
I keep my [G] eyes wide open all the time 
I keep the [C] ends out for the tie that binds 
Because you're [D7] mine 
I walk the [G] line 
 
All these long years later it's still music to my ears 
I swear it sounds as good right now as [D] anything I hear 
[G] I've seen the Mona Lisa 
I've heard Shakespeare writ' real [C9] fine 
[G] Just like hearing [D] Johny Cash 
Sing 'I Walk the [G] Line' [G7] 
 
Chorus II 
As sure as [C] night is dark and day is light 
I keep you [G] on my mind both day and night 
And happi[C]ness that I've known proves that it's right 
Because you're [D7] mine 
I walk the [G] line 
Because you're [D7] mine 
I walk the [C] line [D] [G]
