    F                      
I'm standing in the station
     C                  
I am waiting for a train
   Gm                   
To take me to the border
       Dm                
And my loved one far away
                                              Dm 
I watched a bunch of soldiers heading for the war
        Gm          C7               C 
I could hardly even bear to see them go
F                              
Rolling through the countryside
C                   
Tears are in my eyes
Gm                            
We're coming to the borderline
Dm                    
I'm ready with my lies
    Dm                                       
And in the early morning rain I see her there
      Gm        Gm7         C7      F    
And I know I'll have to say goodbye again

[Chorus]
         Fsus4    F          Dm                 
And it's breaking my heart I know what I must do
  Gm                            C                  
I hear my country call me but I want to be with you
F                  Dm                 
I'm taking my side one of us will lose
Gm                         
Don't let go I want to know
Eb                                  Dm  Bb
That you will wait for me until the day ■ 
           Dm         Bb               F
There's no borderline ■  no borderline ■


[Verse]
C F                             
■ Walking past the border guards
C                    
Reaching for her hand
Gm                
Showing no emotion
          Dm              
I want to break into a run
                                         Dm  
But these are only boys and I will never know
Gm                  C           F  
How men can see the wisdom in a war
