D G D
My mother’s still in vanity
D G D
I’m part of her insanity
D G D
My father died some years ago
D C
But I still pray for his soul
G C G
Now everyone’s a refugee
G C G
On this planet purgatory
G C G
We only find reality
G A
In the land of the chosen few
Em A
I still get lost in wild imagination
Em A
I need to wake up to reality
Em A
I’ve had enough of identifaction
Em A
What can be done for a fool like me
Em A
In the land, in the land,
Em A
In the land of the chosen few
Em A
In the land, in the land,
Em A
In the land of the chosen few
A D
Love is gonna set me free
D Bm
I was dreaming of the Promised Land
G
Where people understand
Em7 D
Real love and harmony
D Bm G
And I knew that I had found my way
D Bm
We were singing songs of innocence
G Em7 D
And experience of love and harmony
D Bm G
And I knew that I was here to stay
D E
In the middle of a cool, cool night
G A
I woke up and I saw the light
Em A
In the land, in the land....
……and repeat Em to A through to end.
