******************* TOO CLOSE TO CALL *******************

written by Chester Lester

performed by Waylon Jennings.


Verse 1:
      E (022100@1)I have battled with the demons for my soul
                                                    A (x02220@1)Like asoldier (x02210@1)unafraid,stood straight and tall
                                                   E (022100@1)With strong convictions fought for what i thought was right and wrong
               D (xx0232@1)             A (x02220@1)                E (022100@1)But i wonder when it stands in judgement hall
                 D (xx0232@1)        A (x02220@1)              E (022100@1)Will it go down as one too close to call


Verse 2:
          E (022100@1)I have faced that cunning ennemy called time
                                             A (x02220@1)For awhile i held him cold and to adraw (x02210@1)                                     E (022100@1)As he rode away he said another place and day
            D (xx0232@1)                      A (x02220@1)            E (022100@1)'Cause you can't erase the writing on the wall
            D (xx0232@1)                A (x02220@1)               E (022100@1)Although this one was just too close to call


Verse 3:
         E (022100@1)As i wrestled with my deepest fear in life
                                              A (x02220@1)I was captured by the shadows on the wall
                                             E (022100@1)I was brave but just the same,i was glad when morning came
            D (xx0232@1)                   A (x02220@1)              E (022100@1)Because now and then the footsteps in the hall
            D (xx0232@1)           A (x02220@1)               E (022100@1)Remind me it was just too close to call


Verse 4:
         E (022100@1)I have watched my mind dance too close to the edge
                                              A (x02220@1)As i stood among the crowd to see it fall
                                         E (022100@1)Sometimes now i cling to what i hope is sanity
              D (xx0232@1)           A (x02220@1)            E (022100@1)I stagger on this fine like that i walk
              D (xx0232@1)         A (x02220@1)               E (022100@1)And wonder is it just too close to call
