Intro: E

Verse:
                          Gbm
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
                  Gbm
In thinking you're more than a man
             A        B           E
Cause you'll probably end up dead


  E
I visit these
         Gbm
Mountains with frequency
      A                  B       E
And I stand here with my arms up

Chorus:
    Gbm              B                E
Now somedays they'll last longer than others
    Gbm             B             E
But this day by the lake went too fast


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

Verse:
      E
Don't fool yourself
                   Gbm
In thinking you're more than you are
          A                    B      E
With your arms outstretched to me


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

Chorus:
    Gbm              B                E
Now somedays they'll last longer than others
    Gbm             B             E
But this day by the lake went too fast


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


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


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