Keep it Between the Lines
Ricky Van Shelton

Capo 1

       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"
