Across The Border chords by Emmylou Harris

Chords with lyrics

A augmentedA D MajorD A augmentedA E MajorE

A augmentedA
Tonight my bag is packed
D MajorD       A augmentedA
Tommorrow I'll walk these tracks
E MajorE               A augmentedA
That will lead me across the border
A augmentedA
Tommorrow my love and I
D MajorD         A augmentedA
Will sleep 'neath auburn skies
E MajorE          A augmentedA
Somewhere across the border
      D MajorD
We'll leave behind my dear
           E MajorE
The pain and sadness we found here
     A augmentedA           D MajorD
And we'll drink from the Brazos muddy waters
          A augmentedA
Where the sky grows gray and wide
D MajorD         A augmentedA
We'll meet on the other side
E MajorE        A augmentedA
There across the border
A augmentedA           D MajorD
For me you'll build a house
D MajorD      A augmentedA
High up on a grassy hill
E MajorE          A augmentedA
Somewhere across the border
A augmentedA
Where pain and memory
D MajorD        A augmentedA
Pain and memory have been stilled
E MajorE        A augmentedA
There across the border
          D MajorD
And sweet blossoms fill the air
      E MajorE
Pastures of gold and green
   A augmentedA          D MajorD
Roll down into cool clear waters
         A augmentedA
And in your arms 'neath the open skies
D MajorD           A augmentedA
I'll kiss the sorrow from your eyes
E MajorE        A augmentedA
There across the border

SOLO

       D MajorD
Tonight we'll sing the songs
           E MajorE
I'll dream of you my Corazon
  A augmentedA             D MajorD
And tommorrow my heart will be strong
      A augmentedA
And may the saints blessing and grace
D MajorD        A augmentedA
Carry me safely into your arms
E MajorE        A augmentedA
There across the border

SOLO

D MajorD
For what are we
    E MajorE
Without hope in our hearts
   A augmentedA                   D MajorD
That someday we'll drink from God's blessed waters
      A augmentedA
And eat the fruit from the vine
D MajorD            A augmentedA
I know love and fortune will be mine
E MajorE          A augmentedA
Somewhere across the border
