(strum "backwards", from high to low the first time)

A
Tonight my bag is packed
D              A
Tomorrow I'll walk these tracks
          E                  A
That will lead me across the border.

A
Tomorrow my love and I
D                 A
Will sleep 'neath auburn skies
      E              A
Somewhere across the border.

              D
We'll leave behind my dear
                     E
The pain and sadness we found here
          A                        D
And we'll drink from Bravo's muddy water.

A
Where the sky grows gray and wide
D                 A
We'll meet on the other side
E                 A
There across the border.

A
For you I'll build a house
D             A
High upon a grassy hill
      E              A
Somewhere across the border.

A
Where and pain and memory
D                A
Pain and memory have been stilled
E                A
There across the border.

                    D
And sweet blossoms fill the air
             E
Pastures of gold and green
       A                       D
Roll down into the cool clear waters.

                   A
And in your arms 'neath open skies
D                      A
I'll kiss the sorrow from your eyes
E                 A
There across the border.

               D
Tonight we'll sing the songs
                    E
I'll dream of you, my corazón
       A                         D
And tomorrow my heart will be strong.

                      A
And may the saints' blessings and grace
D                         A
Carry me safely into your arms
E                 A
There across the border.

      D
For what are we
                 E
Without hope in our hearts
                     A                       D
That someday we'll drink from God's blessed waters.

                    A
And eat the fruit from the vine
D                        A
I know love and fortune will be mine
      E               A
Somewhere across the border.
