On the Borderline Alison Krauss
[C]There's a chill on this evening[G], nights right for greaving,
[F]Darkness surrounds him as he wa[C]nders alone[G]
[C]He walked past the dim lights, the pa[G]thways and street lights
[F]They re[Dm]mind him, of ni[F]ghts lon[G]g ago,[C]
[C]When his love was strong and his muscles hard, His wh[G]iskey throat was barley marred,
[F]Seeking misfortune in the lie[C]s that he told, [G]Then a broki[C]n heart bought him to his knees,
[G]In the hour of his greatest need,[F] Lost and forsak[Dm]en by the love[F], he co[G]uld not hold[C]
Chorus Em F G C Em Am
On the Border line of love again, Its bound to make you pay
[Em]On the Border line, we'll ma[F]ke our s[G]tand[C], Then watch [F]it fall [G]~~ away[C]

And he stands in quiet solitude, The nights reflects upon his mood,
Seeking the vision that had once been so clear, When he felt the touch of his women's love
His pounding heart was warm and young, Now locked inside him with his anger and fear
As he moves on slowly, past the trees, Down the path way home through fallen leaves
He can't believe, how he'd sunken so low, So he learned to live with his injured pride
His purple heart hidden, deep inside, The only reward, for a love he could not hold
