Borderline
F
I'm standing in the station,
C
I am waiting for a train,
Gm
To take me to the border,
           Dm
And my loved one far away,
Gm                                Dm
I watched a bunch of soldiers heading for the war,
Gm               C       C           Dm
I could hardly even bear to see them go;
F
Rolling through the countryside,
C
Tears are in my eyes,
Gm
We're coming to the borderline,
Dm
I'm ready with my lies,
Gm                             Dm
And in the early morning rain, I see her there,
Gm                      C                 F C Dm C Bb Dm C Bb F C
And I know I'll have to say goodbye again;
F                  F         Dm
And it's breaking my heart, I know what I must do,
G                     D                         C
I hear my country call me, but I want to be with you,
F                   C             Dm
I'm taking my side, one of us will lose,
Gm
Don't let go, I want to know,
Eb                     Dm        C
That you will wait for me until the day,
Bb           Dm   C    Bb      Dm    C
There's no borderline, no borderline;
F
Walking past the border guards,
c
Reaching for her hand,
Gm
Showing no emotion,
       Dm
I want to break into a run,
Gm                         Dm
But these are only boys, and I will never know,
Gm           C      C          Dm                        C........
How men can see the wisdom in a war...

And it's breaking my heart, I know what I must do,

I hear my country call me, but I want to be with you,

I'm taking my side, one of us will lose,

Don't let go, I want to know,

That you will wait for me until the day,

There's no borderline, no borderline,

No borderline, no borderline...
