Back On The Borderline by Midnight Oil




                     Back On The Borderline






Tuning: E A D G B E

[Intro]
B5       E x4
A   E     G   D     A   E     G   D
 
 
[Verse 1]
         A       E               G          D        A   E     G   D
From the bar to the bedroom I'm swimming in the neon
         A          E           G           D        A   E     G   D
Lighted pictures of a redhead, plasticoated hot on
    F                   G/F
And sometimes when that mirror shows
    E             Am
The smile of disbelief
       F              G/F
Stained signature of nightmares
        Dm6            E       Em      F#  N.C.
They're stolen by the thief
 
 
[Chorus]
                B             Em
I'm back on the borderline
A        F#          B            Em          A     F#
Yes, I'm back on the borderline
 
 
[Interlude]
A   E     G   D     A   E     G   D
 
 
[Verse 2]
       A        E          G         D
By the end make a bet and only place is laminex
A         E      G        D
Hey touch wood, she looks good
A        E            G              D
Laugh a lot cry a lot salt and pepper supper sex
A   E     G    D
Alright, I'm high
    F                   G/F           E
And sometimes when that magic of the moment
          Am
Fails the test
   F               G/F
In retrospect that diamond day
        Dm6             E
Did not make second best
      G              A/G
And sometimes when a thousand voices
F#                        Bm
Tell you that you're wrong
  G
A saint in any form
A/G             Em        F# N.C.
Becomes a sinner all along
 
 
[Chorus]
                B             Em
I'm back on the borderline
A        F#          B            Em          A     F#
Yes, I'm back on the borderline
 
 
[Instrumental]
B      Em   A   F# x3
B5     E5    A5  F#5
B5     E5
 
 
[Chorus]
                B             Em
I'm back on the borderline
A        F#          B            Em          A     F#
Yes, I'm back on the borderline
                B             Em
I'm back on the borderline
A        F#          B            Em          A     F#
Yes, I'm back on the borderline
