                                 Over the line          by Al Smith

                        Intro,    G-Em-Bm-D-Am7-G-Em-D

            G                    Em                     Bm              D      Am7
           Once upon a time, things weren't so good, people used to call us crazy
          G                       Em                 Bm               D            Am7
        Ride our motorbikes too fast in the rain, sit back  on the porch and be lazy,
         G                      Em                      Bm                 D        Am7
     Chase the girls around, till they'd let us down, till we thought it too much effort
             G                     Em                 Bm          D         Am7
           Still we had our fun, livin' on the run, just enjoyin' what we had then

      Chorus
       
          G            D                 C        D     G          D          C       D
     But things are better now we're over the line, things are better now that we shine
                 G             D               C        D                G-C-G-D
                Things are better now we're over the line, one more time

Once upon a time we'd wait in the dark, waitin' till the light shone for us
Things weren't all that good back in those old days, life was just a sentimental haze,
Playin' silly games, callin' people names, nothin' much more revolved around us
Still we had our fun, livin' on the run, enjoyin' what we had then.

To Chorus

Now we're all grown up and workin' for the buck, trying to make the best of all things,
Singin' in the rain, and laughin' with the pain, livin' as the moments meet us,
Still we're havin' fun, livin' on the run, new experiences daily,
Still we're findin' luck and workin' for the buck, what more can I say hey baby.
