Livin' in the Promise Land
-----------------
by Willie Nelson
(Verse1)
G C
Give us your tired and weak
G
and we will make them strong
D
bring us your forign songs
G
and we will sing along
C
Leave us your broken dreams
G
we'll give them time to mend
D
there's still alot of love
G
livin in the promiseland
(Chorus)
G C
livin in the promiseland
G
our dreams are made of steel
D
the prayer of every man
G
is to know how freedom feels
C
there is a winding road
G
across the shifting sand
D
and room for everyone
G
living in the promiseland
(Verse2)
C
so we came from a distant Isle
nameless woman faithless child
G G G
like a bad dream
C
until there was no room at all
D
no place to run and no place to fall
(Verse3)
D C
give us your daily bread
G
we have no shoes to wear
D
no place to call our own
G
only this cross to bear
C
we are the multitude
G
lend us a helping hand
D
is there no love anymore
G
livin in the promiseland
(solo)
(Chorus)
D G
and room for everyone livin in the promise land..
(end)
