Verse 1
D 
1200 miles it's
length and breadth
G 
D 
That four -square city stands
It's gem -set walls of jasper shines
A 
Not made with human hands
D 
100 miles its gates are wide
G 
D 
In that great city fair
G 
D 
With 50 miles of elbow room
A 
D 
On either side to spare
When the gates swing wide
on the other side,
G 
D 
just beyond the sunset sea,
There'll be room to spare
as we enter there,
E 
A 
room for you and room for me.
D 
For the gates are wide on the other side,
G 
D 
where the flowers ever bloom,
G 
D 
On the right hand, on the left hand,
A 
D 
G 
D 
A 
D 
fifty miles of Bilbo Room.
That four -square city I shall see
G 
D 
when done with toiling time
Sometimes it seems
E 
A 
I almost hear the bells of glory chime
D 
This will be mine when I shall pass
G 
D 
into that city fair
G 
D 
With fifty miles of elbow room
A 
D 
on either side to spare
When the gates swing wide
on the other side,
G 
D 
just beyond the sunset sea
There'll be room to spare
as we enter their room
E 
A 
For you and room for me
D 
For the gates are wide on the other side
G 
Where the flowers ever bloom
D 
G 
D 
On the right hand, on the left hand
A

Fifty miles of elbow room
G 
D 
A 
D 
A 
D 
Sometimes I'm cramped
and crowded here
G 
D 
And long for elbow room
I long to reach some altitude
E 
A 
where feral flowers bloom
D 
This will be mine when I shall pass
G 
D 
through yonder gate so fair
G 
D 
With fifty miles of elbow room
A 
D 
on either side to spare
When the gates swing wide
on the other side,
G 
D 
just beyond the sunset sea
There'll be room to spare
as we enter there,
E 
A 
room for you and room for me
D 
For the gates are right on the other side,
G 
D 
where the flowers ever bloom.
G 
D 
On the right hand, on the left hand,
A 
fifty miles of El Dorado.
D
