verse 1 
     Dm                         C 
In a cloud of dust cross Texas, south of San Antone 
    Bb                                 A7 
The lawman and the cowboy pushed their horses on 
Dm                    C 
Racin' toward the Rio running out of time 
     Bb                         A7                          Dm 
They had to catch the outlaws before they crossed the borderline 
                                    C 
Well, the lawman wanted justice the cowboy needs revenge 
     Bb                             A7 
They tracked the Outlaws' horses up to the river's edge 
    Dm                     C 
And there across the Rio a badge ain't worth a dime 
    Bb                         A7                          Dm 
The law was in their own hands once they crossed the borderline 
 
        F    Bb            C                 F      Bb        C 
So they ride to the desert wind down a dusty trail, destiny begins 
             Bb           C 
Heroes never turn or look back 
          F    Bb                   C                 Bb    Dm 
They just ride through the sands of time on the borderline 
 
 
verse 2 
       Dm                         C 
In the safety of the badlands the outlaws stopped their run 
    Bb                              A7 
The campfire rings with laughter of evil things they've done 
           Dm                        C 
How they'd taken all they wanted and killed the cowboy's wife 
    Bb                             A7                 Dm 
And knew no one would follow them,    cross the borderline 
                           C 
The lawman and the cowboys stepped out of the dark 
           Bb                               A7 
And it was two against the twenty and every bullet found its mark 
    Dm                      C 
And so goes the legend that out there in the night 
    Bb                          A7                     Dm 
The two still ride together somewhere beyond the borderline 
 
        F    Bb            C                 F      Bb        C 
So they ride to the desert wind down a dusty trail, destiny begins 
             Bb           C 
Heroes never turn or look back 
          F    Bb                   C                 Bb   C Dm C7 Bb C 
They just ride through the sands of time on the borderline 
        F    Bb            C                  F      Bb        C 
So they ride to the desert wind, down a dusty trail, destiny begins 
             Bb           C 
Heroes never turn or look back 
        F    Bb            C                 F      Bb        C 
So they ride to the desert wind down a dusty trail, destiny begins 
                 Bb           C 
And heroes never turn or look back
