[Verse 1]
F#m                    C#m
If you're still reading
                 E
these letters I send
F#m                   C#m
Let me try to tell you
       E
what I can't defend:
F#m                 C#m 
My charcoal country
               E
My faith in man
F#m                              C#m   E
Why I'm always asking you to run away again

[Chorus]
F#m                      C#m                      E
Will you follow me across? (You know I'll have to think about it)
F#m                            C#m                      E
Will you follow, loved and lost? (You know I'll have to think about it)
F#m                                 C#m               E
Gotta run now, will you come with me, border crosser, my border crosser?
F#m                         C#m               E
Gotta run now, will you be my border crosser, my border crosser?

[Verse 2]
F#m               C#m       E
I'll keep whistling on that tune we wrote
F#m               C#m       E
I'll keep whistling for the hills we know
F#m               C#m       E
I'll keep whistling for our hollow homes
F#m               C#m           E
I'll keep whistling whether you come or you don't

[Chorus]
F#m                      C#m                      E
Will you follow me across? (You know I'll have to think about it)
F#m                            C#m                      E
Will you follow, loved and lost? (You know I'll have to think about it)
F#m                                 C#m               E
Gotta run now, will you come with me, border crosser, my border crosser?
F#m                         C#m               E
Gotta run now, will you be my border crosser, my border crosser?

Meine liebe, Katharine, komm mit mir, ich bitte dich
