#Fine Line by Hootie and the Blowfish
#
#
#This tune is taken from Hootie’s Let Her Cry single. They’ve been playing it
#for years (I’m sure) and I had the pleasure of seeing them perform it live at
#Hardee’s Walnut Creek in Raleigh, NC, back in August of ’95. I think the
#song was written by their producer, Don Gheman (I think), and I love the
#song. I’m not exactly sure on the lyrics, the strength of Darius’ voice kind
#of muffles his lyrics sometimes, so if the words don’t make sense to you,
#they may be incorrect.
#
#
# INTRO: strum on G
#
#VERSE:
There’s a curve in the highway, just south of town
Where a man has pulled over over , To (C)figure Life out
With only his conscience, and The lonesome sound
of a dieselwinding up the grade
Got a wife and two kids, They love him so (?)
Got a woman down in Charleston, and she’s starting to show
And he’s damned if he leaves her, and he’s sure damned if he don’t
And he wonders how his life got this way….
CHORUS:
Cause it’s a fine line inbetween right and wrong
Yeah you’ve been crossin’ over that border way too long
He should’ve seen it comin’ at him right from the start
Now there ain’t no escape from a broken heart
VERSE 2:
The call of the highway is a powerful thing
Like the pull oF a lover, or a child in a swing
And he’s talkin’ to her, only one way to explain
And there both gonna have his babies now
So how do you confess what words won’t explain?
He never intended to cause this much pain
And I feel like a farmer who’s been prayin’ for the rain
Got more than he bargained from the clouds….
REPEAT CHORUS
BRIDGE:
He’ll turn his car around tonight, go home and try to face the truth
Everyone involved’s gettin’ hurt and there ain’t nothing he can do
no no no
(i use to know the guitar solo but I forgot how to play it and I’m too lazy
to figure it out again, but here are the chords to it in the same pattern as
the chorus)
He should’ve seen it comin’ at him right from the start
Now there ain’t no, now there ain’t no escape from a
CHORUS:
Fine Line inbetween right and wrong
Yeah you’ve been crossin’ over that border way too long
He should’ve seen it comin’ at him right from the start
Now there ain’t no escape from a broken heart
Now there ain’t no escapin’ from a broken heart
Yeah we’re all gonna wind up with a broken heart
(mumbling) Nobody's gettin out without a broken heart
Okay, that’s the song. Maybe someday I’ll come back and put in the guitar
solo, but not any time soon. If you have any questions, email is good

I met a Girl just the other day
Stopped to talk, she had a lot to say
She told me all about her politics
She told me some things that made me sick

G,C,G,Em,C,G

I don’t want just to call her up
Tell her I love her and tell her how much
She don’t need that anyway
and what she don’t need is a bigger head
Michelle Post knows all about it
But she don’t want just to talk about it
She got everything that she believes in
She got something and she won’t let me in

C,G,D,Em,C,G,C,

(first verse: “I met a girl…”)

“She told me some things that made me sick

(Chorus “Michelle Post..”)

“She got something and she won’t let me in”

Won’t let me in, won’t let me in, won’t let me in, woe is me.

I’m pretty sure this is atleast 95% correct. Listen to the song to get the strums and stuff right!
