Intro: G  D  Em   E5

G                 D               Em  E5
I wake up in the morning full of dread
C            Am7           Am  Am/G
trying to remember what I said
D                      
Say that I won't call you
                      D
and I mean it every time
                                 G  
'til I cross that Bourbon Borderline


G                  D             Em    E5
Wish that I could tell you why I called
C                   Am7                Am  Am/G
Sometimes it's just hard for me that's all
D                   
I know that it's over
            D                D
and it's just a waste of time
                                  G
until I cross that Bourbon Borderline


C            D            G
Memories of you surround me
                     E7               Am
and I'm afraid the tears might drown me
Am/G                   D
oh, I think I'm doing fine
                                G      G  D  Em   E5
'til I cross that Bourbon Borderline

G                    D                  Em  E5
It's good that I just do this now and then
C                   Am7            Am  Am/G
you know I'm really not a drinking man
D                      
but I can't bear to talk about us
D
any other time
                                  G
Until I cross that Bourbon Borderline


Memories of you surround me
and I'm afraid the tears might drown me
oh, I think I'm doing fine
'til I cross that Bourbon Borderline

oh, I think I'm doing fine
'til I cross that Bourbon Borderline
