[A] [D] [A] [E]
[A]Tonight my bag is packed
[D]Tommorrow I'll [A]walk these tracks
[E]That will lead me across the b[A]order
[A]Tommorrow my love and I
[D]Will sleep 'neath [A]auburn skies
[E]Somewhere across the [A]border
We'll leave [D]behind my dear
The pain and sadness [E]we found here
And we'll [A]drink from the Brazos [D]muddy waters
Where the sky grows [A]gray and wide
[D]We'll meet on the [A]other side
[E]There across the [A]border
[A]For me you'll build a [D]house
[D]High up on a [A]grassy hill
[E]Somewhere across the [A]border
[A]Where pain and memory
[D]Pain and memory [A]have been stilled
[E]There across the [A]border
And sweet blossoms [D]fill the air
Pastures of [E]gold and green
Roll [A]down into cool clear [D]waters
And in your arms '[A]neath the open skies
[D]I'll kiss the sorrow f[A]rom your eyes
[E]There across the [A]border
SOLO
Tonight we'll [D]sing the songs
I'll dream of you my [E]Corazon
And [A]tommorrow my heart will be [D]strong
And may the [A]saints blessing and grace
[D]Carry me safely i[A]nto your arms
[E]There across the [A]border
SOLO
[D]For what are we
Without [E]hope in our hearts
That [A]someday we'll drink from God's blessed [D]waters
And eat the [A]fruit from the vine
[D]I know love and fortune [A]will be mine
[E]Somewhere across the [A]border
