The promised land
Bruce Springsteen
| G | C G | Em C | C G |
On a rGattlesnake speedway in the UEmtah desert I pCick up my money
and head back into tGown Driving cross the Waynesboro Emcounty line
I got the Cradio on and I'm just killing tGime
WEmorking all day in my Gdaddy's garage EmDriving all night chasingAm some mirage
PCretty soon little girl I'm gonD7na take charge
Chorus:
The doGgs on Main Street howl `cause they CundersGtand If I could tEmake one mComent
into my hGands Mister I ain't a boy no IC'm a mGan And EmI belieCve in a promised lGand
GI've done my best to liveEm the right way I get uCp every morning
and go to work each Gday But your eyes go blind and your Emblood runs cold
Sometimes I fCeel so weak I just want to expGlode EmExplode and tear thisG town apart
TaEmke a knife and cut this pain fAmrom my heart FiCnd somebody itching for someD7thing
to start

There's a Gdark cloud rising from the deEmsert floor I packed my Cbags
and I'm heading straight into the sGtorm Gonna be a twister to blow evEmerything down
C G Em G apart
That ain't got the faith to stand its ground Blow away the dreams that tear you
Em G Em Am nothing
Blow away the dreams that break your heart Blow away the lies that leave you
But lCost and brokenhD7earted Chorus +
And EmI belieCve in a promised lGand And EmI belieCve in a promised lGand
