 Verse 1 chords:
Baby,  baby I am playing  it cool
 Like a love  struck girl from my old  High School, you taste  so sweet
 I am trying  hard to follow  my rules
 Cause I  don't want to be one of those forlorn  fools out  on the street
 Chorus 1 chords:
 Oh but I  could fall, I know you  could too
 Right over  the line, you could be  mine
 We're doing  the dance that two lovers  do when they are out  of time
 On the  bor.......derline
 Baby I don't want you to see me this way
 So vulnerable I'd give my heart away and it makes me weak
 It used to be I was a rock of Gibraltar
 Now I stumble all over my feet and I falter when I try to speak
 Out on the edge of the great divide, the unspeakable chasm between us
 And the places we run to though we can not hide from the neon sign
 On the borderline
 I don't want to waste anymore time around here
 If no is going to throw me a heart-line
 Oh it might just be the right thing to just disappear by the morning time
 From the borderline
 From the borderline
