BORDER SONG
Music by Elton John
Lyrics by Bernie Taupin 
Key: Am


-3  4  -4 -5 6-55
Ho-ly mos-  es 
4  -3   -4  3* -332
I have been re-moved
4  4     6   5   -5  -6
I have seen the spec-tre 
6  -5    5   -55  6
he has been here too
6    6     7  7   6     7   6 -54-34-5
Dis-tant cous-in from down the  line
5     5   5   5   5    6   5 -56-55
Brand of peo-ple who ain’t my kind
-6 -7  7  -665-33
Ho-ly mos-  es 
-5 5    -5  -5 43-34
I have been re-moved


Ho-ly mos-es I have been de-ceived
Now the wind has changed di-rec-tion 
and I’ll have to leave
Won’t you please ex-cuse my frank-ness 
but it’s not my cup of tea
Ho-ly mos-es I have been deceived

3   4   -5  6   -5  5   5   5    
I’m go-ing back to the bor-der
-5 5 -5* -5  5 -5    
Where my af-fairs, 
5     -7  7  6 -5  5-5 -5  5  
Where my af-fairs ain’t a-bused
6 -5 5   -5* -5 5  -5   4   4  -3  
I can’t take an-y more bad wat-er
-3   -5*  -5 5   5  5   -7
Been poi-soned from my head 
6-55 5  5    5
down to my shoes

Holy moses let us live in peace
Let us strive to find a way 
to make all hatred cease
Theres a man over there 
whats his colour I dont care
Hes my brother let us live in peace
Hes my brother let us live in peace
Hes my brother let us live in peace
