            A
There is a fine line,
between recklessness and courage
      D7
It's about time,
you understood which road to take
        A                     F#m
It's a fine line, and your decision
makes a difference
        D7                                  A
Get it wrong, you'll be making a big mistake

D
Come on brother, all is forgiven
                             A
We all cried when you were driven away
D
Come on brother, everything is better
Bm                             E7             A
Everything is better when you come home and stay

    A
Whatever's more important to you
       F#m
You've got to choose what you wanna do
    D
Whatever's more important to be
A
That's the view that you've gotta see

There is a long way, between chaos and creation
If you don't say, which one of these you're
gonna choose
It's a long way, and if every contradiction
Seems the same, it's a game that you're bound
to lose

Come on brother, all is forgiven
We all cried when you were driven away
Come on brother, everything is better
Everything is better when you come home and stay

Am7           F#m7
Come on back, come on back
D7
Come on back to me

       A7/G
It's a fine line
       A+/F
It's a fine line

    F#m
Whatever's more important to you
       A7/G
You've got to choose what you wanna do
    A+/F
Whatever's more important to be
     F#m
Well that's the view that you've gotta see

       A7/G
It's a fine line
       A+/F
It's a fine line
       F#m
It's a fine line
       A7/G
It's a fine line
       A+/F
It's a fine line
       A
It's a fine line
