Bass run: E F# G A B [Intro] (fast picking) Cadd9 G Cadd9 G pause Cadd9 G Cadd9 G Cadd9 G D Em bass run [Verse 1]
Cadd9                         G
     It's midnight in the big city

Cadd9                        G
  At the bar drinking all on my own

Cadd9                         G
     Just thinking about that girl and me
D Em bass run How something's going wrong [Verse 2]
Cadd9        G
     Mister, tell me

Cadd9             G
     What's my saving grace

Cadd9                      G
     The backroom boys are all telling me
D Em bass run I'm a borderline case [Chorus]
Cadd9 C/B    Am        D         G
Back  on the borderline one more time

Cadd9 C/B    Am        D         G
Back  on the borderline one more time
[Verse 3] Seven beers and still sober It's time to change to something stronger I cannot take this scene no longer She could have told me it's all over [Verse 4] Back in my home town The old place, it's still the same But time can cast a spell over someone And you can't go back again [Solo]
Am    Em    x2
Am    Em  bass run
[Chorus
Cadd9 C/B    Am        D         G
Back  on the borderline one more time

Cadd9 C/B    Am        D         G
Back  on the borderline one more time
[Verse 5] Mister, fill me another Till I go crazy and it turn my mind around Just pass that bottle one more time I'm slowly sinking down [Verse 6] Jeanie, can I tell you The shame of my disgrace It's just love or rejection For this borderline case [Chorus]
Cadd9 C/B    Am        D         G
Back  on the borderline one more time

Cadd9 C/B    Am        D         G
Back  on the borderline one more time
