C G C G
Give us your Ctired and weak 
And we will Gmake them strong 
Bring us your Dforeign songs 
And we will Gsing along 
Leave us your Cbroken dreams 
We'll give them Gtime to mend

Our dreams are Gmade of steel 
The prayer of Devery man 
Is to know how Gfreedom feels 
There is Ca winding road 
GAcross the shifting sand 
And Droom for everyone 
Living In The GPromiseland.
CSo they came from a distant isle 
Nameless woman, faithless child 
Like a Gbad dream 
CTil there was no room at all 
No place to run, and no place to Dfall 
Give us our Cdaily bread 
We have no Gshoes to wear 
No place to Dcall our home 
Only this Gcross to bear 
We are the Cmultitudes
Lend us a Ghelping hand 
Is there no Dlove anymore 
Living In The GPromiseland.

Willie Nelson - Living In The Promiseland

[Intro]

C G C G

Give us your tired and weak

And we will make them strong

Bring us your foreign songs

And we will sing along

Leave us your broken dreams

We'll give them time to mend

There's still a lot of love

Living In The Promiseland.

[Chorus]

Living In The Promiseland

Our dreams are made of steel

The prayer of every man

Is to know how freedom feels

There is a winding road

Across the shifting sand

And room for everyone

Living In The Promiseland.

So they came from a distant isle

Nameless woman, faithless child

Like a bad dream

Til there was no room at all

No place to run, and no place to fall

Give us our daily bread

We have no shoes to wear

No place to call our home

Only this cross to bear

We are the multitudes

Lend us a helping hand

Is there no love anymore

Living In The Promiseland.

C G D G C G D G

[Chorus]

And room for everyone

Living In The Promiseland.
