G                 G7M
Heaven sent the promised land
G7                       G6
Looks alright from where I stand 'cause
G                                     D7  D9
I'm the man on the outside looking in

G                    G7M
Waiting on the first step
G7                G6
Show me where the key is kept
G                                             D7  D9
Point me down the right line 'cause it's time

            G           G7
To let me in from the cold
          C       Am7
Turn my lead into gold
                 G
'Cause there's a chill wind
              G7
Blowing in my soul
                        D7  D9
And I think I'm growing old

G                G7M
Flash the radies wot's uh the deal
G7                    G6
Got to make it to the next meal
G                                            D7  D9
Try to keep up with the turning of the wheel

G               G7M
Mile after mile stone after stone
G7                    G6
You turn to speak but you're alone
G                                          D7  D9
Million miles from home you're on your own

G              G7M
Fire bright by candle light
    G7             G6
And her by my side
G                                       D7  D9
If she prefers we need never stir again
G                G7M
Someone sent the promised land
G7                   G6
Oh I grabbed it with both hands
G                                         D7  D9
Now I'm the man on the inside looking out

        G             G7
Hear me shout come on in
           C                 Am7
What's the news where you've been
               G                  G7
'Cause there's no wind left in my soul
               D7  D9
And I've grown old
