When I Get To The Border
Tuning:Standard
When I Get To The Border
by Richard Thompson
C
Greedy people take what's mine
F (G)
I can leave them all behind
C C/B Am
And they can never cross that line
F G
When I get to the border
C
Saw-bones standin' at the door
F (G)optional
Waiting till I hit the floor
C C/B Am
He won't find me anymore
F G
When I get to the border
CHORUS:
G
Monday morning, Monday morning
Closing in on me
G F#/G Em
I'm packin' up and I'm a-runnin' away
C D
To where nobody thinks of me
---------------------------------
C
If you see a box of pine
F G
With a name that looks like mine
C C/B Am
Say I drowned in a barrel of wine
F G
When I got to the border
F G
When I got to the border
CHORUS
-------------------------
C
A one way ticket's in my hand
F G
Headed for the chosen land
C C/B Am
My troubles will all turn to sand
F G
When I get to the border
C
A soft girl with yellow hair
F
Waiting in that rockin' chair
C C/B Am
And if I'm weary I won't care
F G
When I get to the border
CHORUS
----------------------------------------
C
A dusty road that smells so sweet
F
Paved with gold beneath my feet
C C/B Am
And I'll be dancing down the street
F G
When I get to the border
F G
When I get to the border
CHORUS
