|Em d Am|Em d Am|Em d Am|Em d Am|

  Em                                  d Dsus4 d Am
I hate it when you wander, 
  Em                        d Dsus4 d Am
So sensual and free
         Em                                      d Dsus4 d Am
And I hate it when you're psychic, 
        Em                         d Dsus4 d Am
With things I cannot see
  Em                                  d Dsus4 d Am
I hate it when you lead on, 
       Em                                    d Dsus4 d Am
Like you know which way to go
         Em                                  d Dsus4 d Am
And I hate it when you stumble, 
  Em                                         d Dsus4 d Am
And you never touch the floor?


            c               d  Dsus4  d  g
A pathological liar, 
     c                    d  Dsus4  d  g
I?m fallin' again
          c                       d  Dsus4  d  g
With a flood of desire, 
               c      d                                  Em      d Am|Em d Am
I walk the line,     between pleasure and pain?


  Em                                  d Dsus4 d Am
I hate it when you're lying, 
  Em                                  d Dsus4 d Am
So close to me at night
  Em                                         d Dsus4 d Am
And I hate the way you whisper,
  Em                                     d Dsus4 d Am
Sweet words into my mouth

         Em                             d Dsus4 d Am
Yet a woman be the reason,
  Em                           d Dsus4 d Am
A woman be the light,
   Em                             d Dsus4 d Am
A woman be the colour, 
   Em                                  d Dsus4 d Am
If faith would be my sight?


        c                               d  Dsus4  d  g      
I'm a man of contradiction, 
          c                             d  Dsus4  d  g
With a heart so restrained,
       c                                d  Dsus4  d  g
So afraid of commitment, 
               c      d                                  Em       d Am Em d
I walk the line,     between pleasure and pain...


g
It may take one lifetime 
     d
Or it may take one day
      c
For me to find the courage, 
g                 d
Not to walk away
   g
If this is all that matters,
   d
If this is all we know,
       c
If enlightenment is our journey, 
       Bm (let ring)            Em  d Am Em
It will never ever? let us go 
 d        
(Never let us go)


Solo: Em d Am|Em d Am|Em d Am|Em d Am


  Em                                    d Am
I hate the way you want me, 
  Em                                    d Am
Passion in your eyes
  Em                                    d Am
I struggle and I reason, 
  Em                                          d Am
"This couldn't possibly be right."


         Am  Em                      d Am
And I fight you with armour, 
         Am  Em
And I fight you with fear,
       Am  Em
So afraid of what I would find out, 
      Am    Em
If I would let your heart come near?


            c               d  Dsus4  d  g
I believe in redemption, 
            c               d  Dsus4  d  g
For a fool's domain
            c               d  Dsus4  d  g
And I ask for forgiveness,
               c      d
I walk the line, 
                                 Em    d  Am  Em d
Between pleasure and pain, 
              Am              Em    d  Am  Em  d  Am
Between pleasure and pain, 
               C (let ring)     D (let ring)
I walk the line... 
                                 Em (let ring)
Between pleasure and pain...


I hope it isn't too disappointing!
Have fun!!!
