Walk a Straight Line
--------------------

Intro -- "Walkdown" to Am, see notes at end


                                  
I need some help.   Help to decide.
                                 (Walkdown to )
Whether its our love, steps out of time.

                                   
You say you need, time on your own
                              
time to accept how our love has grown.

             
And when you think about
        
all the bad in me
       
think about this too
                           (Walkdown to )
how me and you could forever be.


Verse 2
--------
                             
In need of help, help to expand
                                   (Walkdown to )
with each other's minds, together to plan.

                                  
Time in our lives,  time on our own
                                
so one day we'll see our love has grown.

              
And when that day arrives
           
don't know where we'll be.
      
but I hope that trust
          
can be for us and
                 (Walkdown to )
you'll still love me.

Verse 3
-------
                                    
I need some help,   help to be found
                                     (Walkdown to )
when you are alone I won't let you down.

                                 
We all need time,  time on our own
                                  
so we can step back, see how love's grown.

             
And when I'm stepping back
          
hope that I will see
     
that faith can play
                            (Walkdown to )
a part today for both you and me.

       
And if love needs help
       
and if love needs time
     
give love the strength
         
to walk a straight line.

                      
Walk a straight line.
                      
Walk a straight line.
                      
Walk a straight line.

                      
I need some help.
                            
I need some help.
