'Borderstone' by Gordon Lightfoot - Guitar Tutorial

                 G                          C                           
The night is as black as the coal dust on the tracks  
           D             C     G       
Up to the east day is dawning  
                         C             Am        
From time to time I get women on my mind  
 D                      
I'm a son of a gun  
 
 C              G                   A                   D         
Borderstone, Borderstone gonna cross your line tonight  
 C              G                           D           G7         
Borderstone, pretty little town, gonna make my bed tonight  
 
 G                             C                         
The train that I'm on is a hundred boxcars long  
                 D               C     G       
So I don't sleep through to the morning  
                         C             Am        
That's some chilly wind in this gondola I'm in  
 D  
I wish I had a glass of beer  
 
 C              G                   A               D         
Borderstone, Borderstone gonna cross your line tonight  
 C              G                           D           G7         
Borderstone, pretty little town, gonna make my bed tonight  
 C              G                   A               D         
Borderstone, Borderstone gonna cross your line tonight  
 C              G                           D          G7         
Borderstone, pretty little town, gonna make my bed tonight  
 
A  E  A  E  A  E  A   
                         
                               D                                 
The boarding house reach is a thing no school can teach you  
      E                   D  A        
I confess I've been outfumbled  
                                   D                 Bm          
And the sound of the beans boiling through the evergreens  
 E                               
Sure do please a hungry man  
 
 D              A                   B               E         
Borderstone, Borderstone gonna cross your line tonight  
 D              A                        E             A         
Borderstone, pretty little town, gonna make my bed tonight  
 D              A                   B                E         
Borderstone, Borderstone gonna cross your line tonight  
 D              A                         E           A7         
Borderstone, pretty little town, gonna make my bed tonight  
 
 G                             C               
The sound of the wheels rebounds across the fields  
       D          C     G       
I'm a name with no number 
                        C             Am    
And so I guess I'd be drifting more or less 
 D   
But still it's not meant to be  
 
 D              A                   B               E         
Borderstone, Borderstone gonna cross your line tonight  
 D              A                      E               A         
Borderstone, pretty little town, gonna make my bed tonight  
 D              A                   B                 E         
Borderstone, Borderstone gonna cross your line tonight  
 D              A                       E             A7         
Borderstone, pretty little town, gonna make my bed tonight  
 
 D              A                   B                 E         
Borderstone, Borderstone gonna cross your line tonight  
 D              A                    E               A7
