Intro 1
(G major) (Gsus2) (G major) (Gsus2)
(G major)
Verse 1
And the (G major)
coal trucks come a- runnin'
With their (Csus2) bellies (Gsus2) full of coal
And their (Csus2) big wheels a- (Gsus2) hummin'
Down (G major) this road that lies open
like the soul of a woman
Who (Csus2) hid the spies who were (D major) lookin'
For the (Csus2) land of the milk
and the (D major) honey (Gsus2) (G major)
And this road she is a woman
She was (Csus2) made from a (D major) rib
Cut from the (Csus2) sides (D major) of these mountains
Oh these (G major) great sleeping Adams
Who are lonely even here in (Csus2) para (D major) dise
Lonely for (Csus2) somebody
to (D major) kiss them
And I'll sing (Csus2) my song
(G major) ~ and I'll sing (A minor) my song
In the (C major) land (Csus2) of my sojourn
Verse 2
(G major) And the lady in the harbor
She still (Csus2) holds (D major) her torch out
To those (C major) (D major) huddled masses who are
(G major) Yearning for a freedom
that still eludes them
The (Csus2) immigrant's (D major) children see their (Csus2)
brightest dreams (D major) shattered (G major)
Here on the New Jersey shoreline in the
(C major) Greed (G major) and the glit (D major) ter of those
(Csus2) high- (D major) tech casinos
But some (G major) mendicants wander
off into a cathedral
And they (Csus2) stoop (D major) in the silence
And there their (Csus2) pray (D major) ers
are still whispered
And I'll (E minor) sing their (C major) song,
(Csus2) (C major) (G major) and I'll sing (A minor) their song
In the land of (C major) my so (Csus2) journ (E minor)
Verse 3
Nobody tells you (B minor) when
you get born here
How much (Csus2) you'll come (D major) to love it
And how you'll (E minor) nev (D major) er belong here
So I (E minor) call you my country
And I'll be (B minor) lonely for my home
And I (C major) wish that I could take you
there with me
(A minor)
Verse 4
(G major)
And down the brown brick spine
of some (Csus2) dirty blind (G major) alley
(D major) All those (Csus2) drain (G major) pipes are (Gsus2) drippin'
out (G major) the last Sons Of Thunder
While off in the distance
the smoke (Csus2) stacks
Were belching (Gsus2) (D major) back this (C major) city's
best (D major) answer (G major)
Verse 5
And the (G major) countryside (B minor) was pocked (G major)
(B minor) With all of those (Csus2) mail (D major) pouch posters
Thrown up (E minor) on the rot
(D major) ting sideboards of
These (G major) rundown stables like the one
that Christ was born in
When the (Csus2) old world (D major) started dying
And the (C major) new world (D major) started coming on
And I'll (C major) sing His song,
(Csus2) (G major) and I'll (A minor) sing His song
In the (C major) land of my so (Csus2) journ
(G major) (D major)
Verse 6
(E minor)
(D major) In the land of my sojourn (G major)
And I will sing His (D major) song (C major)
(D major) In the land of my (G major) sojourn"
Outro 1
