CG7C
There's a place where I've been told
FG7C
Every street is paved with gold
AmG7
And it's just across the border line
CG7C
And when it's time to take your turn
FDm
Here's a lesson that you must learn
CG7C
You could lose more than you'll ever find
AmG7C
When you reach the broken promised land
FC
And every dream slips through your hands
AmG7
Then you'll know that it's too late to change your mind
FG7C
Cause you've paid the price to come so far
FG7Am
Just to wind up where you are
CG7C
And you're still just across the border line
G7C
Up and down the Rio Grande
FG7CA thousand footprints in the sand
AmG7
Reveal a secret no one can define
CG7C
The river flows on like a breath
FDm
In between our life and death
CG7C
Who's the next to cross the borderline
G7C
Hope remains when pride is gone
FDm
And it keeps you moving on
CG7C
Calling you across the borderline
AmG7C
When you reach the broken promised land
FC
And every dream slips through your hands
AmG7
Then you'll know that it's too late to change your mind
FG7C
Cause you've paid the price to come so far
FG7Am
Just to wind up where you are
CG7C
And you're still just across the border line
AmCG7C
And you're still just across the border line
FG7C
Cause you've paid the price to come so far
FG7Am
Just to wind up where you are
CG7C
And you're still just across the border line
AmCG7C
And you're still just across the border line
