Intro: [Dm] [Dm/C] [Bb] [Dm] [C] [Bb] [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
[F] [C] [Dm] [C] [Bb] [Dm] [C] [Bb] [F/C] [C]
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 [Eb] will wait for me until the day [Dm] [C]
[Bb] There's no borderline___ [Dm] no [C] border[Bb]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]
[Bb] No borderline,___ [Dm] no [C] border[Bb]line
