Capo 4th fret
Standard (EADGBE)
I wake up in the morning full of dread
[G/f#]
Trying to remember what I said
Say that I won't call you and I mean it every time
'til I cross that Bourbon Borderline
I wish that I could tell you why I called
Sometimes it's just hard for me that's all
I know that it's over and it's just a waste of time
Until I cross that Bourbon Borderline
Chorus
Memories of you surround me
And I'm afraid the tears might drown me
[G/f#]
Oh, I think I'm doing fine
'Til I cross that Bourbon Borderline
It's good that I just do this now and then
You know I'm really not a drinking man
But I can't bear to talk about us any other time
Until I cross that Bourbon Borderline
Chorus
Oh, I think I'm doing fine
'Til I cross that Bourbon Borderline
