[A] [A] [D]
There's a place [A] where I've been [D] told [G] Every street [A] is [D] paved with gold
And it's just [Bm]
across the [A] borderline [Em] [D]
[A] [Em] [D] And when it's time [A] to take your [D] turn
Here's a lesson [G] that you must learn [Em] [D] You could lose [A] more than you ever [Bm] [A] hoped [D] to find
When you reach the [A] broken [G] [D] promised land [G] And every dream [Em] [D] slips through your hands
[A] [D] Then you'll know [A] that it's [Bm] too late [G] to change [A] your mind
[G]
[A] [F#m] [D] [G] Cause you've [A] paid the [Em] price [D] to come so far [G] [A] Just to [Gm] wind [Bm] up [Em] where you are
[D] And you're still [A] just across the [D] borderline
[G] [D] [D] Up and [A] down the Rio [D] Grande [G]
Thousand [A] footprints [D] in the sand
Reveal a secret [Bm] no one can [A] define
[G] [A] [D] The river [A] flows on [D] like a breath In between [G] our life [Em] and death
[D] Tell me, who's [A] the next to cross the [D] borderline?

[A] [D] En la triste [A] [D] oscuridad [G] Hoy tenemos [A] [D] que cruzar este
[F#m] [Bm] río
En los [A] llamas mas [Em] allá [A] But [D] hope remains [A] when [D] pride is gone
And it keeps [G] you [Em] moving on [D] Calling you [A] across the [D] borderline
[A] [D] And when you [Em] reach the [D] broken promised land [G] And every dream [D] slips through your [A] hands
[D] Then you'll know [F#m] [Bm] that it's too late [A] to change your [Em] mind
[A] [G] Cause you've [A] paid the [D] price to come so [G] far Just [A] to [G] wind [Bm] up [G] [Em] [D] where you are
And you're still [A]
[D] just [A] across the [F#m] [D] borderline
