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