Huey Lewis & the News | Walking On a Thin Line (HQ) chords
Start Jamming...
[A] [F#m] Sometimes [D] in my bed at night [A] I curse the dark and I pray for the light
And sometimes the light's no consolation Back [D] in my memory
[A] [D] Afraid of what he might do to me [A] And the tears and the [D] sweats only mark my [Am] [F#m] desperation
[D] Don't [G]
you know beyond [A] the point of start The one you thought [G] so easy to ignore
Is that what I [E] was fighting for
[A]
Walking on a thin [G] line Straight out the front [D] line
Level the streets Loose on the streets [A] of the city
Walking on a thin [G] line Angry all the time
[D] Take a look at my face See what he's doing [A] to me
[N]
[F#]
Taught me [D] how to shoot to kill [A] [F#m] A specialist [D] with a deadly skill
[A] A [F#] skill I [D] needed to have to [A] be a [F#m] survivor
[D] [C] So [A]
relaxed, so to say [D] [A] Sometimes [D] it don't work out that way
[A] Cause you're never [D] the same when you're been under [A] fire, no
[G]
Don't you know [A] beyond the point of start The one you [G] thought so easy to ignore
Is that what I [E] was fighting for
[A]
Walking on a thin [G] line Straight out the front [D] line
Level the streets Loose on the streets [A] of the city
Walking on a thin [G] line Angry all the time
[D] Take a look at my face See what he's doing to [A] me
