INTRO: D C G D C Bm Em G
D
This news won't break my heart
Em
It's already been blown apart
Bm
I feel like a helpless girl
D
In this tender troubled world
G
Another bomb lights up the night
D
For someone's vision of paradise
Em
But it's just a wasted sacrifice
Bm D
That fuels the hate on the other side
PD-C HORUS:
C G D
All in the name of a holy land
C G D G
All to claim a line in the sand
CHORUS:
Oh, but the promised land
C D G
Is just across another line in the sand
Yeah, the promised land
C D Em D G
Is just across another line in the sand
Just like at Calvary
D
Soldiers do the bidding of their king
Em
And dreams are lost, one at a time
Bm D
Blown across both sides of the line
G
You can't kill a giant with just one stone
D
You can't erase the story of a family's home
Em
A hate-filled heart still beats alone
Bm D
Walking wounded on that endless road
PD-C HORUS:
C G D C
And there's so much blood on all our hands
G D G
It cuts an even deeper line in the sand
CHORUS:
Oh, but the promised land
C D G
Is just across another line in the sand
Yeah, the promised land
C D Em D
Is just across another line in the sand
PD-C HORUS:
C G
I hope a forgiving rain will fall sometime
D C D
And wash away that line
LEAD BDA K: C G D C G D G
CHORUS:
Oh, but the promised land

Oh, but the promised land

Is just across another line in the sand
Yeah, the promised land
C D C G
Is just across another line in the sand
