G                      C
One more midnight, her man is still gone
G                   C
The nights move too slow
G                         C
She tries to remember the heat of his touch
      G                D      G
While listening to the Border Radio


[Verse 2]

G                         C
She calls toll-free and requests an old song
G                      C
Something they used to know
G                             C
She prays to herself that wherever he is,
     G                D      G
He's listening to the Border Radio


[Chorus]

 C
"This song comes from nineteen sixty-two
C
Dedicated to a man who's gone
C
Fifty thousand watts out of Mexico
G           D          G
This is the Border Radio
G           D          G
This is the Border Radio"


[Verse 3]

G                       C
She thinks of her son, asleep in his room
G                     C
And how her man won't see him grow
G                               C
And thinks of her life and she hopes for a change
      G                D          G
While listening to the Border Radio


[Chorus]

 C
"This song comes from nineteen sixty-two
C
Dedicated to a man who's gone
C
Fifty thousand watts out of Mexico
G           D          G
This is the Border Radio
G           D          G
This is the Border Radio"


[Verse 4]

G                          C
They play her tune but she can't concentrate
G                  C
She wonders why he had to go
G                         C
One more midnight and her man is still gone
      G                D          G
She's listening to the Border Radio


[Chorus]

 C
"This song comes from nineteen sixty-two
C
Dedicated to a man who's gone
C
Fifty thousand watts out of Mexico
G           D          G
This is the Border Radio
G           D          G
This is the Border Radio"


[Outro]

G           D          G
This is the Border Radio
