Tonight my bag is packed
DA
Tommorrow I'll walk these tracks
EA
That will lead me across the border
A
Tommorrow my love and I
DA
Will sleep 'neath auburn skies
EA
Somewhere across the border
D
We'll leave behind my dear
E
The pain and sadness we found here
AD
And we'll drink from the Brazos muddy waters
A
Where the sky grows gray and wide
DA
We'll meet on the other side
EA
There across the border
AD
For me you'll build a house
DA
High up on a grassy hill
EA
Somewhere across the border
A
Where pain and memory
DA
Pain and memory have been stilled
EA
There across the border
D
And sweet blossoms fill the air
E
Pastures of gold and green
AD
Roll down into cool clear waters
A
And in your arms 'neath the open skies
DA
I'll kiss the sorrow from your eyes
EA
There across the border
SOLO
D
Tonight we'll sing the songs
E
I'll dream of you my Corazon
AD
And tommorrow my heart will be strong
A
And may the saints blessing and grace
DA
Carry me safely into your arms
EA
There across the border
SOLO
D
For what are we
E
Without hope in our hearts
AD
That someday we'll drink from God's blessed waters
A
And eat the fruit from the vine
DA
I know love and fortune will be mine
EA
Somewhere across the border
