Hard Line Tab

by Jill Barber


Here's Jill Barber's website:

For the picking rhythm for this song do a constant bassnote then chord repetition. There 
be 8 bassnote-fullchord reps in this line: "Today I took my love away."

Verse 1:

Today I took my love away
			
I swear I thought I heard

My own heart whispering
			
its dying words

Chorus:

Cause it's a hard line that you would take
			
Take a lifetime to make it

Don't do it for mine, but for your own sake
			
If you choose to take it

Verse 2:

Today I let our love die
I stood by it til its last sigh
Then disappeared from the scene of the crime
Locked away and served my time


Instrumental:

     (x2)

Bridge:
			
Cause in a great divide
			
Where a line is drawn
			
Oh you must decide
			
which half you're standing on

Verse 3 (fingerpicked):
Today I met a new love
How could I be sure
Whether it was ever true love
That I had known before
