Reachin up, but not quite touchin the promised land
E G A
I see fingers, hands, and shades of faces,
E G A
Reachin up, but not quite touchin the promised land,
E G A
I hear pleas and prayers, and desperate whispers sayin,
E
Oh lord, please give us a helping hand
(all harmonics on twelfth, let ring)
Yeah yeah yeah
E G A
Way down in the background, I can see the frustrated souls of cities burnin,
E G A
And on across the water, I can see weapons barkin out to stand down,
E G A
And up in the clouds, I can imagine UFO’s chuckling to themselves, laughin they sayin,
E
“Those people so uptight, they sure know how to make a mess”
Yeah
solo
E G A
Well, back at the saloon my tear mix in mildew with my drink,
E G A
I can’t really tell my feet from the sawdust on the floor,
E G A
Far as I know, they may even try to wrap me up in cellophane and sell me,
E G A
Brothers help me, and don’t worry ‘bout lookin at the score.
Yeah yeah yeah.
