The Line

Bb                                                   Ab              Bb

Dry mouth, push it out, I can hear my heart pound, a hero's what I'm not

Bb                                                           Ab          Bb

Voices scream, flashes flare, frozen as the people stare, my crucifixion shot

 

Bb                                                             Ab              Bb

Friends were electric on the western side while triangles were shifting on the floor

Bb                                                                  Ab            Bb

Squeezing out the breath that I don't have, they're quiet now, they only want two more

 

Cm         Eb          Bb     Eb

   And you step to the line

Gm         F           Ab

   And you step to the line

 

Bb                                                    Ab              Bb

Every shot I've taken has led me to this moment since I was four feet high

Bb                                                     Ab             Bb

Big D is watching, I remember what he taught me, don't let em see you cry

 

Cm         Eb          Bb     Eb

   And you step to the line

Gm         F           Ab

   And you step to the line

 

Bb                              Eb

Try to see your future from the line

           Gm                               F

And you're clinging to the notion you'll be fine

        Ab                               Eb     Ab    Bb         

But the circle's getting smaller all the time

Bb                              Eb

Try to see your future from the line

           Gm                               F

And you're clinging to the notion you'll be fine

        Ab                               Eb     Ab    Bb         

But the circle's getting smaller all the time

 

Bb                                                   Ab              Bb

Dry mouth, push it out, I can hear my heart pound, a hero's what I'm not

Bb                                                           Ab          Bb

Voices scream, flashes flare, frozen as the people stare, my crucifixion shot

 

Cm         Eb          Bb     Eb

   And you step to the line

Gm         F           Ab

   And you step to the line

 

Bb                              Eb

Try to see your future from the line

           Gm                               F

And you're clinging to the notion you'll be fine

        Ab                               Eb     Ab    Bb         

But the circle's getting smaller all the time

Bb                              Eb

Try to see your future from the line

           Gm                               F

And you're clinging to the notion you'll be fine

        Ab                               Eb     Ab    Bb         

But the circle's getting smaller all the time
