Tabbed By: Kaija
So I've seen lots of chords and tabs of Borrowed Time, but they're not right. The chords
technically correct, but not the capo. Like, Capo 1 Am and Capo 6 Em are the same
But Capo 6 Em had the E string on the 6th fret, which is in the song. So Capo 1 Am is
the right chord, so to say.
The ending tab part may not be 100% correct, but it's pretty close.
Standard Tuning
Capo 6
Thick as thieves the last of leaves
In the winter sun
Holding fast this freezing branch
Is home to us
Step, step right over the line
And onto borrowed time
When it's life, not waiting to die
Waiting to divide to divide
Counting stars and passing cars
On the interstate
The end is near I feel it dear,
But I am not afraid
Step, step right over the line
And onto borrowed time
When it's life, not waiting to die
Waiting to divide to divide
But you say you're getting tired
You're tired and so am I
When you follow from behind
Step, step right over the line
And onto borrowed time
When it's life, not waiting to die
Waiting to divide to divide
But you say you're getting tired
You're tired and so am I
When you follow from behind
