[Verse]

C                   
Run out of money and  
               G
Runnin' out of luck

F                        
Run into problem I never, 
      C
Never thought of 
   C                  
It seems like I didn't 
              G
Run out of my dreams
    F                       
But we've got each other and
                     C
 Tonight we're gonna leave
 
 
[Chorus]

       Am   G
To the borderline
F                        C
Leave all our troubles behind
       Am   E
At the borderline
   F                      G     C    F
Forget all our troubles tonight
 
 
[Verse]

C                            G
A broken promise is a broken dream
      F               
We've all had so many, 
             C
Too many for me
  C                       
Impossible to have freedom
                    G
 When things aren't free

    F                        
But we've got each other and 
                    C
Tonight we're gonna leave
 
 
[Chorus]

       Am   G
To the borderline
F                        C
Leave all our troubles behind
       Am   E
At the borderline
   F                        G
Forget all our troubles and hide
       Am   G
To the borderline
F                    C
Leave our troubles tonight
       Am   D
At the borderline
   F
Forget all our troubles
F
Leavin' all our troubles
       G
At the borderline
G
I wanna go, I wanna go
           F       Em
Oh I'll go anywhere
Em
I wanna go, I wanna 

Go away from here

         F
Is all I really care

Girl of my dreams

Runnin' away from a 
               C
Life of broken dreams
