Am 
A Thousand Miles miles
Battered and bruised
Bloody clothes
And worn -out shoes
We saw freedom
G

It was in our hands
C 
Now we're all doing time
G 
down here at the border
Am 
C

Am 
land
God's a -walkin' in
detention grounds
Babies cryin', sleepin' on the ground
G 
They took our mother,
Am 
they took our dad
C 
And that's just me and my sister
G 
Am 
down here at the borderland
F 
C 
The sun don't shine in this dark hole
G 
Am 
Dusty headlights of the border patrol
F 
C 
The Texas sky, tears rainin' down
Am 
Between heaven  and hell
G 
Am 
down here at the borderland
