intro : [ Dm ] [ Dm/C ] [ A# ] [ Dm ] [ C ] [ A# ] [ F/C ] [ C ]

i’m [ F ] standing in the station , i Am [ C ] waiting for a train
to take [ Gm ] me to the border and my loved one far [ Dm ] away
i [ Gdim ] watched a bunch of soldiers heading for the [ Dm ] war
i could hardly [ Gm ] even bear to see [ C ] them go [ C7 ]

[ F ] rolling through the countryside [ C ] tears are in my eyes
we’re [ Gm ] coming to the borderline , i’m [ Dm ] ready with my lies
and in [ Gdim ] the early morning rain , i see [ Dm ] her there
and i know [ Gm ] i’ll have to [ C7 ] say goodbye again

chorus :
and it’s break [ F ] ing my heart , i know [ F/E ] what i must [ Dm ] do
i [ Gm ] hear my country call me but i want [ Gm/D ] to be with [ C ] you
i’m [ F ] taking my side , ___ [ C/E ] one of [ Dm ] us will lose
[ Gm ] don’t let go , i want to know
that you [ D# ] will wait for me until the day [ Dm ] [ C ]
[ A# ] there’s no borderline___ [ Dm ] no [ C ] border [ A# ] line

[ F ] walking past the border guards [ C ] reaching for her hand
showing [ Gm ] no emotion i want to [ Dm ] break into a run
but [ Gdim ] these are only boys , and i will [ Dm ] never know
how [ Gm ] men can see the [ C7 ] wisdom in a war

[ chorus ]
[ A# ] no borderline , ___ [ Dm ] no [ C ] border [ A# ] line
