(Play that "G" right into the first verse...)
G
I was up when I put her down
C G
I was thinking 'bout a Bordertown
G
And I sang it out in a song
D G
In a song, Lord, in a song.
It's a shame and it's a crime.
Can't see nothin' eye to eye.
Water's up but the levee's down
In a bordertown, in a bordertown.
A lonely man will settle for
Something less than he adores
And he'll sing it out in a song
In a song, Lord, in a song.
I was wrong and I was right.
And I was thinkin' that I just might
Pack it up to settle down
In a bordertown, in a bordertown.
[Refrão] C
The difference, I percieve
G Em
Ain't nothing but a dream
G D G
In us all, in us all, Lord, in us all.
From Oregon to Shenandoah
I have ridden the highway roads
And I sang it out in a song
In a song, Lord, in a song.
Every city is the same
And every river has a name
Like the stars shining down
On a bordertown, on a bordertown.
Chorus
The difference, I percieve
Ain't nothing but a dream
In us all, in us all, Lord, in us all.
In us all, Lord, in us all.
In us all...
