[Verse 1]
NC
E7
Cruisin' down the center of a two way street
E7
Wondrin' who is really in the driver's seat
E7
Mindin' my bus'ness along comes big brother
E7
Says, 'son, you better get on one side or the other.'

[Chorus]
Bm7         A          E
(Whaoo) I'm out on the border, 
Bm7         A           E
(Whaoo) I'm walkin' the line
Bm7                                  A       E
(Whaoo) Don't you tell me 'bout your law and order
Bm7                               A        E
(Whaoo) I'm try'n' to change this water to wine.

[Verse 2]
NC
E7
After a hard day, I'm safe at home
E7
Foolin with my baby on the telephone
E7
Out of nowhere somebody cuts in and
E7
Says, 'hmm, you in some trouble boy, we know where you're been.'

[Chorus]
Bm7         A          E
(Whaoo) I'm out on the border, 
Bm7         A           E
(Whaoo) I'm walkin' the line
Bm7                                  A       E
(Whaoo) Don't you tell me 'bout your law and order
Bm7                               A        E
(Whaoo) I'm try'n' to change this water to wine.

[Bridge]
E            A/E  D6/E       A/E          E 
  Never mind your name, just give us your number, mm
           A/E  D6/E       A/E          E
Never mind your face, just show us your card, mm
       A/E   D6/E       A/E          E
And we wanna know whose wing are you under
           A/E           D6/E          A/E     E
You better step to the right or we can make it hard


[Chorus]
Bm7         A          E
(Whaoo) I'm stuck on the border, 
Bm7                            A          E
(Whaoo) All I wanted was some peace of mind
Bm7                                  A       E
(Whaoo) Don't you tell me 'bout your law and order
Bm7                               A        E
(Whaoo) I'm try'n' to change this water to wine.

[Solo]
