Across The Borderline Willie Nelson
Intro D D5 D Dsus4 D D5 D X2 CAPO 2
D A7 D G A7
There's a place where I've been told Every street is paved with gold
D Bm A A7
And it's just a...cross the border line
D A7 D
And when it's time to take your turn
G Em
Here's a lesson that you must learn
D A A7 D D5 D Dsus4 D D5 D
You could lose more than you'll ever find
Chorus
D Bm A7 D G D
When you reach the broken promised land And every dream slips through your hands
D Bm A7 D5 D Dsus4 D D5 D
Then you'll know that it's too late to change your mind
G A A7 D
Cause you've paid the price to come so far
G A A7 Bm G D A7 D D5 D Dsus4 D D5 D
Just to wind up where you are and you're still just a...cross the border line
D A7 D G A7
Up and down the Rio Grande A thousand footprints in the sand
D Bm A7 D A A7 D
Reveal a secret no one can define The river flows on like a breath
G Em D A A7 D
In between our life and death Who's the next to cross the border line
Guitar solo D A7 D G A7 D Bm A7
D A7 D G Em
Hope remains when pride is gone And it keeps you moving on
D A7 D D5 D Dsus4 D D5 D
Calling you a...cross the borderline
D Bm A7 D G D
When you reach the broken promised land And every dream slips through your hands
D Bm A7 A D Dsus4 D D D
Then you'll know that it's too late to change your mind
G A A7 D
Cause you've paid the price to come so far
G A A7 Bm G D A7 D D5 D Dsus4 D D5 D
Just to wind up where you are and you're still just a...cross the border line
D A7 D D5 D Dsus4 D D5 D
And you're still just a...cross the borderline
