Living in the Promiseland (video)

C - G (2x)

C G

1. Give us your tired and weak and we will make them strong,

D G

bring us your foreign songs and we will sing along.

C G

Leave us your broken dreams, we'll give them time to mend,

D G

there's still a lot of love livin’ in the Promiseland

C G

Livin’ in the Promiseland, our dreams are made of steel,

D G

the prayer of every man is to know how freedom feels.

G7 C - G

There is a winding road across the shifting sand,

D G

and room for everyone livin’ in the Promiseland.

C

So we came from a distant Isle,

G

nameless woman, faithless child like a bad dream,

C

until there was no room at all,

D - D7

no place to run and no place to fall.

C G

3. Give us your daily bread, we have no shoes to wear,

D G - G7

no place to call our own, only this cross to bear.

C G

We are the multitude, lend us a helping hand,

D G

is there no love anymore livin’ in the Promiseland.

+ instrumental = verse 3 + CHORUS

D G - G - C - G

+ And room for everyone livin’ in the Promiseland.

(Willie Nelson)
