Key:F Capo:3
INTRO:D
D D G
He was sitting beside me in the passager seat
D A7
As I looked through the windshield at the quiet little street
D G
He was smiling so proud as he gave me the key
A A7
But inside I knew he was as nervous as me
D G
I said Daddy oh Daddy are you sure I know how
D A7
Are you sure that I'm ready to drive this car now
D
He said I'm right here beside you
G
And you're gonna do fine
Bm A7 D
All you gotta do is keep it between the lines
A7 G
'Cause it's a long narrow road
G A7 Bm G G/F# Em
Only the Good Lord knows where it leads in the end
Em/D A7/C# A7/B |A7
But you got to begin
G A7 D
So keep your hands on the wheel
G A7 Bm
Believe in the things that are real
G A7 D D
Just take your time and keep it between the lines
D G
I was sitting in my chair and sneaking a look at him
D A7
Lying on the floor with his colouring book
D G
Then he caught me watching and he climbed on my knee
D A7
He said Daddy oh Daddy would you do one with me
D G
Then I hugged him so tightly as we turned the page
D A7
Said I haven't done this since I was your age
D
He said I'm right here beside you
G
And you're gonna do fine
Bm A7 |D D
Daddy all you gotta do is keep it between the lines
D G
So we finished the picture and I put him to bed
D A7
Got down on my knees and I bowed my head
D G
I said Father oh Father I feel so alone
D A7
Are you sure I can riase him with his Mommy gone
D G
Then the answer came back so gentle and low
D A7
And words of my Daddy from so long ago
D G
He said I'm right here beside you and you're gonna do fine
Bm A7 D D
All you gotta do is keep it between the lines
A7 D G
So keep your hands on the wheel
G A7 Bm
Believe in the things that are real
G A7 D D
Take your time and keep it between the lines
G A7 D D
Just take your time and keep it between the lines
