Living in the borderland
I don't f[B]eel like a boy, I don't feel like a man
In the thin[E]gs I don't understand
Things like love[C#m], like the law[B]
Like the law of the jungl[E]e
[E]Are we all animals
Are we all animals sharpening
Our teeth and claws
[B]Stocking up on cannonballs
[E]Living like nobody knows
They can't hold on t[B]o love[C#m]
And live by the law,[B] the law of the jungl[E]e
[E]Help me Holy Jesus
Won't you show[A] me how to live
[E]I've got monsters at my table
I've got [A]Bibles bent like shivs
[E]Help me Holy Lord
I see the li[A]ght of heaven's porch
But so[E] many of us are born here
[A]Outside your chain link fence
[E]Living in the borderland[-A]
You gotta fend f[E]or yourself,
Let the dogs eat the other man[A]
[E]Living in the borderland[-A]
You gotta take[B] what you get,
Gotta get what you can[A]
[E]Are we all dangerous
Are we all dangerous lost boys shoring up
Pock[B]ets full of fairy dust
[E]Suffering the wanderlust
They all get cru[B]shed without love[C#m]
By the law, [B]the law of the jungle[E]
(Interlude: E-A-B-C#m)
(Return to Chorus, then)
[E]Living in the borderland[-A]
Are you going to fight [E]like a boy,
Gonna run like a man[A]
[E]Living in the borderland[-A]
Gotta take [E]what you get,
Gotta get what you can[A]
But you can't hold on[C#m]
Can't hold on to lov[B]e
You can't hold o[C#m]n
You can't ho[B]ld on and live
By the Law[E][-][A]
