Borderstone

G

                             C
The night is as black as the coal dust on the tracks
          D            C   G
Up to the east, day is dawning
                        C           Am     D
From time to time I get women on my mind
I'm a son of a gun

C            G                 A                 D
Borderstone, Borderstone gonna cross your line tonight
C            G                         D             G
Borderstone, pretty little town, gonna make my bed tonight

                           C
The train that I'm on is a hundred boxcars long
           D                    C   G
So I don't sleep through to the morning
                                C           Am   D
That's some chilly wind in this gondola I'm in
I wish I had a glass of beer

C            G                 A                 D
Borderstone, Borderstone gonna cross your line tonight
C            G                         D             G
Borderstone, pretty little town, gonna make my bed tonight
C            G                 A                 D
Borderstone, Borderstone gonna cross your line tonight
C            G                         D             G

    A                                  D
The forwarding house let me choose the thing no school can teach you
     E                  D  A
I confess I've been out-fumbled
                               D               Bm       E
The sound of the beans boiling through the evergreens
Sure do please a hungry man

D            A                 B                 E
Borderstone, Borderstone gonna cross your line tonight
D            A                         E             A
Borderstone, pretty little town, gonna make my bed tonight
D            A                 B                 E
Borderstone, Borderstone gonna cross your line tonight

Borderstone, pretty little town, gonna make my bed tonight

    A                     D
The sound of the wheels rebounds across the fields
      E            D  A
I'm a name with no number
                      D                Bm     E
And so I guess I'd be drifting more or less
Still it's not meant to be

D            A                 B                 E
Borderstone, Borderstone gonna cross your line tonight
