Where are you aiming at? Is your aim point in line with off-stump, or wider, or what? Does your left arm come through like a rudder, pointing where you want the ball to go, then swing through to drag you through the action? Is your front foot pointing in the right direction? Is your head level and eyes looking where you want the ball to go when you release? Do you leap into your action (and maybe over-rotate) or is a smoother run?
Shorten your run up for a start. No point in hurtling in to the crease like a maniac if you can't bowl straight. Get your control back and then increase your run up again.
Get someone else who can bowl to watch your action from different angles and see if he can see what's wrong. If you have access to a video camera, try videoing your action and see if you can spot what's wrong.

I swing both ways - but only when I'm bowling!
