Intro: E

Verso 1:
                          F#m
It's sixteen miles to the promised land
      A               B               E
And I promise you I'm doing the best I can
          E
Now don't fool yourself
                  F#m
In thinking you're more than a man
             A        B           E
Cause you'll probably end up dead

  E
I visit these
         F#m
Mountains with frequency
      A                  B       E
And I stand here with my arms up


[Refrão]

    F#m              B                E
Now somedays they'll last longer than others
    F#m             B             E
But this day by the lake went too fast

           A
And if you want me
    B               C#m   B     E
You better speak up I won't wait
       A      B          E
So you better move fast


Verso 2:

      E
Don't fool yourself
                   F#m
In thinking you're more than you are
          A                    B      E
With your arms outstretched to me

        E               F#m
Now its 16 miles to the promised land
      A               B               E
And I promise you I'm doing the best I can


[Refrão]

    F#m              B                E
Now somedays they'll last longer than others
    F#m             B             E
But this day by the lake went too fast

           A
And if you want me
    B               C#m   B     E
You better speak up I won't wait
       A      B          E
So you better move fast

    F#m              B                E
Now somedays they'll last longer than others
    F#m             B             E

You better speak up I won't wait
       A      B          E
So you better move fast
