Waylon Jennings – Broken Promise Land chords

INTRO: G C G C 
 

VERSE: 
            G             D There's a bible on the dresser, 
        C                                                    and a sign hung on the door, 
        D           C                  G                                and a woman in my arms that shouldn't be. 
             G             D I'm to the point of no returning, 
      C  but I've been here before. 
         D               C           G This cheating life is nothing new to me. 
           G              D There's someone to be considered, 
   C I call her on the phone, 
             D              C              G and say the job is taking longer than I planned 
         G                D I dont have the heart to tell her, 
           C that a stranger turned me on, 
           D              C             G and I'm heading for the broken promise land 

Refrão 
    G                  C Tonight I'm crossing over  
           D                 Em and I'll reach the cheating side 
          G                D           Am and I'll hate myself for coming here again. 
G                                   C Where the streets are paved with misery 
      D                 Em and lives are built on lies, 
      G                    D            C the place they call the broken promise land

 
VERSE: 
            G                 D Found the note left on the dresser, 
         C and the key left in the door, 
             D                 C             G and on the floor I found her golden wedding band. 
            G             D             Guess she finally had to tell me,  
            C              she's not waiting here no more, 
          D               C              G and she heading for the broken promise land. 
 
Chorus: 
G                       C Tonight she's crossing over  
             D                 Em and she'll reach the cheating side 
G                          D              Am and I'll hate myself for giving her the chance. 
              G                     C 'Cause the streets are paved with misery 
      D                 Em and lives are built on lies. 
      G                   D              C The place they call the broken promise land. 
G                            C ...and its more than I can stand.
