[D] There's a land so I've been told, [G] every street [A] is paved [D] gold, and it's just [Bm] across the [A] borderline.
[D] And when it's time to take your turn, here's a [G] lesson you must learn, [D] you could lose more
[A] than you ever hoped to [D] find.
And when you reach the broken promised land, [G] every dream slips through your hands, then
[D] you'll know it's [Bm] too late to change [A] your mind.
Cause [G] you paid [A] the price [D] to come so far, [G] just [A] to wind [Bm] up where you [G] are, [D] and you'll still
be [A] just across the [D] borderline.
Up and down the Rio Grande, [G] a thousand footprint [A]
in [D] the sand, reveal a secret [Bm]
no one [A] can define.
[D] The river flows on like a breath, in between our [G]
life and death.
Tell [D] me who's the next [A] to cross the [D] borderline.
And when you reach the broken promised land, [G] [A] every dream [D] slips through your hands, then
you'll know it's too [Bm] late to change [A] your mind.
Cause [G] you paid [A] the price [D] to come this far, [G] just [A] to wind up [Bm] where you [G] are, and [D] you'll
still be [A] just across the [D] borderline.
