[Intro]
G#m E C#m F#
[Verse 1]
G#m E
The voice of the empire
C#m F#
Descend hellfire
G#m E
Pull the plug sire
C#m F#
I'll spit fire
G#m E
Trance of the empire
C#m F#
Strangle my desire
G#m E
Pull the plug sire
C#m F#
And I'll spit fire
[Chorus]
G#m B
I'm borderline happy and I'm borderline sad
F# G#m
I'm borderline good and I'm borderline bad
G#m E
And I can't get rid of this lingering fear
C#m F#
You sort me out when my head gets clear
G#m B
I live my life in shackles but I'm borderline free
F# G#m
I used to be blind but I still can't see
G#m E
And I won't get round to a change of mind
C#m F#
As long as nobody breaks my stride
[Instrumental]
G#m B F# G#m
G#m E C#m F#
G#m B F# G#m
G#m E C#m F#
[Verse 2]
G#m E
Shakes of the empire
C#m F#
Make me happy can't say I'm higher
G#m E
Higher up there with fire
C#m F#
Fools of the empire
G#m E
I went to school in the empire
C#m F#
Learnt the rules from a brad sire
G#m E
I be a fool of the empire
C#m F#
Till I break loose, breath fire
Burn it down
[Chorus]
G#m B
I'm borderline happy and I'm borderline sad
F# G#m
I'm borderline good and I'm borderline bad
G#m E
And I can't get rid of this lingering fear
C#m F#
You sort me out when my head gets clear
G#m B
I live my life in shackles but I'm borderline free
F# G#m
I used to be blind but I still can't see
G#m E
And I won't get round to a change of mind
C#m F#
As long as nobody breaks my stride

[Chorus]
G#m B
I'm borderline happy and I'm borderline sad
F# G#m
I'm borderline good and I'm borderline bad
G#m E
And I can't get rid of this lingering fear
C#m F#
You sort me out when my head gets clear
G#m B
I live my life in shackles but I'm borderline free
F# G#m
I used to be blind but I still can't see
G#m E
And I won't get round to a change of mind
C#m F#
As long as nobody breaks my stride
