Fine Line  by  Hootie and the Blowfish



Written by Radney Foster



 INTRO:   strum on G



VERSE:

     

          G                                        D

There's a curve in the highway,  just south of town

           Em                                      C

Where a man has pulled over ,  to figure life out 

           G                                   D

With only his conscience,   and a lonesome sound

            C

Of diesels whinin' upgrade 



            G                         D

Got a wife and two kids, they love him so 

            Em                                     C

Got a woman down in Charleston,  and she's starting to show

            G                                          D

And he's damned if he leaves,  and he's sure damned if he don't

            C

And he wonders how his life got this way....



CHORUS: 



                    D   G        C                              D

Cause it's a fine line in between right and wrong  

            G                                        C

                       D     

Yeah he's been crossin' over that border way too long   

            Em                                    D                 G

He should've seen it comin' at him right from the start

            C                                      D       G

Now there ain't no escape from a broken heart

             C                                      D      G



VERSE 2:



           G                                        D

Now the call of the highway is a powerful thing

            Em                                     C

Like the pull of a lover, or a child in a swing

            G                                        D

Gave his heart to two women, only one wears his ring

             C

They're both gonna have his babies now 



     G                           D

So how do you confess what words won't explain? 

    Em                         C

He never intended to cause this much pain

    G                             D

And I feel like a farmer who's been prayin' for the rain

    C

Got more than he bargained from the clouds.... 



REPEAT CHORUS



BRIDGE:



Bm                                                 C

He'll turn his car around tonight, go home and try to face the truth

Am                 G                              D

Everyone involved's gettin' hurt and there ain't nothing he can do

D

no no no  



(i use to know the guitar solo but I forgot how to play it and I'm too lazy

to figure it out again, but here are the chords to it in the same pattern as

the chorus)



                       D                    G                   C

                 D 

                      G                    C                    D 



Em                                                D                 G

He should've seen it comin' at him right from the start 

C                                                D           G

Now there ain't no, now there ain't no escape from a 



CHORUS:



D       G         C                             D

Fine Line inbetween right and wrong

G                                                    C

                      D

Yeah you've been crossin' over that border way too long

Em                                               D                   G

He should've seen it comin' at him right from the start

C                                                 D        G

                                     

Now there ain't no escape from a broken heart

C                                                 D        G

Now there ain't no escapin' from a broken heart

C                                                 D          G

Yeah we're all gonna wind up with a broken heart

                  C                                          D         G

(mumbling) Nobody's gettin out without a broken heart



C                                                  D            G





Okay, that's the song.   Maybe someday I'll come back and put in the guitar

solo, but not any time soon.  If you have any questions, email is good
