[VERSE 1]
[A]It all started with the [E]border
[E]And that's still where it is tod[D]ay
[D]Someone killed Ramon Casia[A]no
[A]And the killer got awa[E]y
[E]Down by the Sister Cities river
[E]Two boys with way more [D]pride than sense
[D]One would fall and one would[A] prosper
[A]Never forced to make a[E]mends

[VERSE 2]
[D]He became a border [E]agent
[E]And supplemented what he [D]made
[D]With creative deportati[A]on
[A]And missing ammo by the c[E]ase
[E]Since Bullet ran the operation
[E]There's hardly been a minute [D]since
[D]There ain't a massing at the b[A]order
[A]From Chinese troops to terror[E]ists

[BRIDGE]
[E]He had the makings of a lea[D]der
[D]Of a certain kind of m[A]en
[A]Who need to feel the world's a[D]gainst him
[D]Out to get 'em if it c[A]an
[A]Men whose trigger pull their [G]fingers
[G]Of men who'd rather fight tha[A]n win
[A]United in a revoluti[E]on
[E]Like in mind and like in[D] skin

[VERSE 3]
[D]It all started with the bor[E]der
[E]And that's still where it is [D]today
[D]Down by the Sister Cities[A] river
[A]But for sure no one can s[E]ay
[E]But killing's been the bullet's business
[E]Since back in 19[D]31
[D]Someone killed Ramon Cas[A]iano
[A]And Ramon still ain't dead e[E]nough
