	        G 
Tonight my bag is packed 

C             G 
Tomorrow I'll walk these tracks 

D7                           G 
That will lead me across the border 


Tomorrow my love and I 

C                 G 
Will sleep 'neath auburn skies 

D7                   G 
Somewhere across the border 

   
            C 
We'll leave behind my dear 

                     D7 
The pain and sadness we found here 

          G                     C 
And we'll drink from the Brazos muddy waters 

                    G 
Where the sky grows gray and wide 

C                 G 
We'll meet on the other side 

D7               G 
There across the border 


                      C 
For me you'll build a house 

             G 
High up on a grassy hill 

D7                   G 
Somewhere across the border 


Where pain and memory 

C               G 
Pain and memory have been stilled 

D7               G 
There across the border 

   
                   C 
And sweet blossoms fill the air 

            D7 
Pastures of gold and green 

     G                    C 
Roll down into cool clear waters 

                  G 
And in your arms 'neath the open skies 

C                    G 
I'll kiss the sorrow from your eyes 

D7               G 
There across the border 


              C 
Tonight we'll sing the songs 

                     D7 
I'll dream of you my Corazon 

    G                         C 
And tomorrow my heart will be strong 

            G 
And may the saints blessing and grace 

C                G 
Carry me safely into your arms 

D7               G 
There across the border 


C 
For what are we 

        D7 
Without hope in our hearts 

     G                                      C 
That someday we'll drink from God's blessed waters 

            G 
And eat the fruit from the vine 

C                       G 
I know love and fortune will be mine 

D7                   G 
Somewhere across the border
