I'm s^Cadd9tanding on the borderline What sh^Amould I bring or leave behind From w^Fho I was For ^Gwho I'm gonna be?

[Verse 1]

^Cadd9I still haven't packed my ^Ambags It's time to ^Cadd9go And I could not care l^Amess So now, I'll m^Fiss the train A walk's still pr^Gogress made I ^Gjust won't arrive quite as fast^Cadd9 ^Am

[Verse 2]

^Cadd9I'm thinking way b^Amack To where I'm ^Cadd9from To the things I ^Amhad I feel I^F've forgotten something Iâm sure that it's p^Grobably nothing But that's b^Gased more on fear than on f^Cadd9act ^G

[Chorus]

I'm s^Cadd9tanding on the borderline Be^Amtween two states- I'm petrified To p^Amush ahead or ^Cadd9turn back homewardly

[Verse 3]

^Cadd9I'm a shadow of the ^Ampast The shadow of a ^Cadd9boy A boy who couldn't l^Amast They said: "Son, don't c^Fhange" And I keep ^Ghoping they ^Gwon't see how much I h^Cadd9ave ^Am

[Verse 4]

A f^Cadd9eeling's not a thing you ^Amown But it can be ^Cadd9lost I just want to be ^Amhome 'Cause home's where the h^Feart is And when I de^Gparted I mig^Ght've abandoned them bo^Cadd9th ^G

[Chorus]

I'm s^Cadd9tanding on the borderline Be^Amtween two states-- I'm petrified I'm st^Cadd9anding on the borderline What s^Amhould I bring or leave behind From ^Fwho I was For ^Gwho I'm gonna be? ^Em7

[Bridge]

I'd l^Gike to say: "I'm the ^Bmsame person from y^Cadd9esterday Nothing's ch^Ganged"

'Cause ye^Gsterday I was ^Bmeager to see what a^Cadd9waited I wasn't jade^Gd

But n^Go! ^Bm ^Em7 I can't go b^Cadd9ack

^GYouth seemed sweeter But if I could r^Bmeturn, all I've learned would be forf^Em7eit I won't go ^Cadd9back ^G ^Bm ^Em7 ^Cadd9 ^G ^Bm ^Em7 ^Cadd9

[Outro]

I'm f^Gollowed by the borderline as ^BmI pace forward in my life S^Em7eeking the times I'll ^Cadd9long for once they leave me ^G
