C G7 C
There's a place where I've been told
F G7 C
Every street is paved with gold
Am G7
And it's just across the border line
C G7 C
And when it's time to take your turn
F Dm
Here's a lesson that you must learn
C G7 C
You could lose more than you'll ever find
Am G7 C
When you reach the broken promised land
F C
And every dream slips through your hands
Am G7
Then you'll know that it's too late to change your mind
F G7 C
Cause you've paid the price to come so far
F G7 Am
Just to wind up where you are
C G7 C
And you're still just across the border line
G7 C
Up and down the Rio Grande
F G7 C
A thousand footprints in the sand
Am G7
Reveal a secret no one can define
C G7 C
The river flows on like a breath
F Dm
In between our life and death
C G7 C
Who's the next to cross the borderline
G7 C
Hope remains when pride is gone
F Dm
And it keeps you moving on
C G7 C
Calling you across the borderline
Am G7 C
When you reach the broken promised land
F C
And every dream slips through your hands
Am G7
Then you'll know that it's too late to change your mind
F G7 C
Cause you've paid the price to come so far
F G7 Am
Just to wind up where you are
C G7 C
And you're still just across the border line
Am C G7 C
And you're still just across the border line
F G7 C
Cause you've paid the price to come so far
F G7 Am
Just to wind up where you are
C G7 C
And you're still just across the border line
Am C G7 C
And you're still just across the border line
