The promised land
Bruce Springsteen
[Intro]
| G | C G | Em C | C G |
[Verse 1]
G Em C
On a rattlesnake speedway in the Utah desert I pick up my money
G Em
and head back into town Driving cross the Waynesboro county line
C G
I got the radio on and I'm just killing time
Em G Em Am
Working all day in my daddy's garage Driving all night chasing some mirage
C D7
Pretty soon little girl I'm gonna take charge
[Chorus]
G C G Em C
The dogs on Main Street howl `cause they understand If I could take one moment
G C G Em C G
into my hands Mister I ain't a boy no I'm a man And I believe in a promised land
[Verse 2]
G Em C
I've done my best to live the right way I get up every morning
G Em
and go to work each day But your eyes go blind and your blood runs cold
C G Em G
Sometimes I feel so weak I just want to explode Explode and tear this town apart
Em Am C D7
Take a knife and cut this pain from my heart Find somebody itching for something
to start
[Chorus]
G C G Em C
The dogs on Main Street howl `cause they understand If I could take one moment
G C G Em C G
into my hands Mister I ain't a boy no I'm a man And I believe in a promised land

[Verse 3]
G Em C
There's a dark cloud rising from the desert floor I packed my bags
G Em
and I'm heading straight into the storm Gonna be a twister to blow everything 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
C D7
But lost and brokenhearted
[Chorus]
G C G Em C
The dogs on Main Street howl `cause they understand If I could take one moment
G C G Em C G
into my hands Mister I ain't a boy no I'm a man And I believe in a promised land
[Outro]
Em C G Em C G
And I believe in a promised land And I believe in a promised land
[Harp Solo]
